Medication Scripts & Renewals

Keeping your medication up to date is essential for managing chronic conditions and staying healthy. 

At EveryMed General Practice in East London, we provide safe, efficient, and professional medication scripts, renewals, and repeat prescriptions for both chronic and acute conditions.

What Are Medication Scripts & Renewals?

Medication scripts and renewals allow you to continue receiving the medicine prescribed by your doctor. 

Chronic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, asthma, and thyroid disorders often require ongoing treatment, making script renewals an essential part of your healthcare routine.

Our GP ensures your prescriptions are clinically appropriate, safe, and based on up-to-date medical guidance.

Who Needs Prescription Renewals?

You may need a script renewal if you:

  • Take chronic medication such as blood pressure tablets, ARVs, insulin, thyroid medication, or cholesterol treatment
  • Ran out of your regular medication
  • Are switching pharmacies
  • Need a repeat script for travel
  • Have been advised to continue long-term treatment
  • Require a review before your medication can be safely continued

Regularly reviewing your medication helps maintain its effectiveness and prevents complications.

Why Regular Reviews Are Important

Your GP may need to assess your health before renewing prescriptions to:

  • Ensure medication is still necessary
  • Adjust dosages
  • Check for side effects
  • Monitor chronic conditions
  • Review recent blood results
  • Avoid harmful interactions with new medications

This ensures safe, effective long-term care.

What Happens During a Script Renewal Appointment?

At your consultation, your GP will:

  1. Review your medical history
  2. Check your current symptoms and treatment progress
  3. Assess whether your medication is still appropriate
  4. Conduct necessary examinations (such as blood pressure checks)
  5. Order blood tests if required
  6. Issue a prescription for collection at your chosen pharmacy

The process is simple, professional, and patient-focused.
