Private Prescriptions

Unfortunately we will not be able to transfer your initial private prescription to the NHS, you will need to pay for the initial prescription, following this we will be able to transfer this to a NHS prescription upon you bringing in the box from the initial private prescription, additionally if you have a letter from the prescribing consultant detailing the medication issued we will add this to your medical records, if we have not already done so.
