I’m out of medication. Can I arrange a repeat prescription via the out-of-hours GP practice?

Patients normally arrange their repeat prescriptions via their own GP. It’s only possible for a duty doctor to write out a repeat prescription in urgent cases. The doctor would then prescribe as much medication as necessary to tide you over until your own GP’s next surgery. Please do bear in mind that pharmacies will charge extra for out-of-hours services. These costs can amount to 40 euros and will be at your own expense.
