What Are Private Prescriptions?
A private prescription is a prescription issued outside of the NHS system, allowing patients to access medications that may not be available through standard NHS channels, or for those who prefer to pay privately for convenience, speed, or specific treatment choices.
Private prescriptions can cover a variety of medications, including those for long-term conditions, short-term illnesses, or lifestyle-related treatments. We ensure all private prescriptions are handled safely and in line with current clinical guidelines.
