The easy way for you to order your repeat prescription
A brand-new online prescription ordering service has been launched for the county improving access for patients.
In addition to the current phone and email service provided by the Prescription Ordering Direct (POD) team, an online prescription ordering form is now available so patients can place orders quickly and easily online.
Patients who regularly submit repeat prescription requests are being encouraged to visit www.shroptelpod.nhs.uk where they can simply complete the online form and submit a repeat medication order.
Before contacting the POD team, patients are advised to check medication cupboards before ordering and ensure that orders are placed only when they have seven days of medication left. Likewise, if patients have a build-up or have stopped taking any medication, they should also let the POD team know.
You can continue to contact the POD team by phone at 03333 583 509. Lines are open 8.00am to 5.00pm, Monday to Friday, excluding bank holidays.
For more information on the service, please visit the NHS Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin website.
