Prescription lengths at our Practice

Although prescriptions can legally be written for up to 12 months, our clinic continues to issue most medicines in 3-month intervals.

  • Regular review is an important part of safe medical care, especially for patients on multiple medications.

  • A small number of very stable medicines (such as inhalers, oral contraceptives, vitamin D, stable statins, and stable thyroxine) may be issued for 12 months at your doctor’s discretion.

    Note: scripts written for longer than 3 months will incur a slightly higher fee.

  • All other medicines will continue to be prescribed in 3-month intervals to ensure your safety
