Prescription Alignment

What is an Alignment?

An alignment of medication means all your regular medication can be organised so it all runs out at the same time, this means you will only have to put one order in.

How Does it Work?

  • Submit the online alignment form on our website when you order your next prescription
  • Collect an alignment form from the surgery or pharmacy and hand in with your next prescription.
Count all the medication you have and record the name and figures on the sheet. If you are unable to complete the form – you can book an appointment with the practice pharmacy technician to help you with the alignment. You will be given enough supply on your next prescription of each medication to coincide with the medication you have the most of.

Are there any medicines that can't be aligned?

Yes, any medication that is taken as required:

  • Painkillers
  • Inhalers
  • Creams
  • Diabetic products
  • Appliances/wound products
  • Warfarin

What happens next?

Your medications should now all run out at the same time, when you put your next request in you should be able to order

**you can only align your prescriptions once within the year unless you discuss with the pharmacy technician**
