Don’t get caught out this Easter Bank Holiday Weekend

As the Easter Bank Holiday Weekend (Friday, 18 April – Monday, 21 April) approaches, now is the time to check how much of your regular repeat medication you have left.

In the run-up to Easter, services can get increasingly busy. If your medication is due to run out during the bank holiday period, it’s a good idea to order it now.

To avoid any last-minute issues, aim to order your medications at least one week in advance. This allows enough time for your GP practice to issue your prescription and for the community pharmacy to prepare your medicines. The quickest and easiest way to order repeat medicine is via the NHS App or GP Online Services – you can do this 24/7 from the comfort of your own home, without having to leave the house.

Don’t get caught out over the bank holiday weekend; check your medicines today.
