If you have been given an outpatient prescription following attendance at a hospital clinic please note:
- If the hospital wanted you to start the medicine urgently, they would expect you to take the prescription to the hospital outpatient pharmacy (there can be hours-long waits).
- If it was not urgent, you can drop in the outpatient prescription at the surgery for us to process - this may take up to two weeks (it has been locally agreed that non-urgent means delaying by up to 14 days is safe).
