In some circumstances, Health New Lynn patients can order repeat prescriptions without making an appointment for certain stable conditions. Please note that repeat prescription requests are checked by a doctor / nurse and in some circumstances you may be asked to make an appointment before a prescription can be raised. Generally, your medication list will be reviewed annually but some patients may need to be seen more frequently.
For repeat scripts requested over the phone, these will be available for collection/faxed to the pharmacy of your choice within 3 working days.
Please note that special conditions apply to online requests - see Online script ordering for more information below.

Online Script Payments
Payments for scripts using the Health New Lynn online order form are processed via Paypal. You don't need a PayPal account to use the order form, but if you intend to make repeat script orders it would be beneficial to set up a PayPal account.
Online script payments for a prescription collected either from reception or from your chosen pharmacy are both $18.00 each.
