What Is the Repeat Dispensing Service?

A More Convenient Alternative to Repeat Prescriptions

The Repeat Dispensing Service allows your GP to issue multiple prescriptions in advance, so you don’t need to request a new prescription every time your medication is due.

This means:

  • Fewer trips to your GP surgery
  • Less admin and waiting
  • A smoother, more reliable system

How Repeat Dispensing Works

Getting started is simple and hassle-free:

1. Doctor’s Authorisation

Your GP issues a batch of prescriptions for your regular medication, often covering several months (up to a year).

At Comber Pharmacy, we securely hold your prescriptions and prepare your medication at the correct intervals.

Simply visit the pharmacy when your medication is ready — no need to contact your GP each time.

Want it even easier?

We also offer Electronic Repeat Dispensing (eRD), where everything is managed digitally for maximum convenience.

The Most Convenient Way to Manage Prescriptions

With eRD, your prescriptions are sent electronically from your GP directly to our pharmacy.

Benefits include:

✔ No paper prescriptions
✔ No need to contact your GP each month
✔ Faster, more efficient service
✔ Reduced risk of delays
