How Can You Help?

Only order what you need

Let your GP or pharmacist know if you've stopped taking any of your medicines.
Check what medicines you still have at home before re-ordering.
Discuss your medication with your Pharmacist or GP on a regular basis.
Think carefully before ticking all the boxes on your repeat prescription forms and only tick those you really need.
If you don't need the medicine - don't order it! If you need the medicine in the future you can still request it.
If you need to go into hospital, please take all your medicines with you.
Please remember your medicines are prescribed for you - it is not safe to share them.
