Medication Review

We review any regular medication on a repeat prescription annually and wherever possible the doctor will do this without you having to attend the surgery.

If you have been advised by the surgery that your medication review is due, please use this form.

If you are due a review of your contraceptive pill, please visit Contraception instead.

Please be aware that once this form has been submitted, it will be held within your health record.
