Eat. Sleep. Order. Repeat (prescriptions).

Remember to reorder before the festive holidays. 🎄

Ordering your repeat prescription 7 days before you need it:

✅ Saves you stress
✅ Makes sure your medication is ready on time
✅ Helps the NHS reduce waste
✅ Supports pharmacy teams under pressure

For the attention of Morlais Medical Patients:

Due to circumstances beyond our control, from 1st October 25, the way in which patients order repeat prescriptions will be changing.

Patients must now use their prescription counterfoils to order their repeat medicines.
The items you require must be ticked. The completed counterfoil should then posted in the letterbox situated in Dowlais Pharmacy.

Alternatively, your prescription can be ordered via the NHS wales app.

The pharmacy will dispense your prescription as usual.
Please ensure you order your medication in good time.

Our delivery service for eligible patients will remain unchanged.

The ordering of prescriptions via the telephone will no longer be available.

If you have any questions about these changes, please speak to a member of staff.
