Repeat Prescriptions
Ordering Prescriptions Online
If your doctor has discussed it with you, checked that your medications are appropriate and your condition is stable, then you are able to order repeat prescriptions online using the same system as our online appointment system myIndici.
From February 1st, 2026 SOME medications will be suitable for 12 month prescription repeats, at the discretion of, and following a consultation with, your doctor specifically regarding this. Some medications and medical conditions will still require more frequent review in terms of patient safety and health outcomes.
If you are expecting to request your next prescription as a repeat, using the myindici portal/phone, then please do this as usual.
When you are due to actually see the doctor again about your medication, then you can discuss what duration of prescription you are suitable for at your GP consultation.
NOTE: You must register first for the online portal if you haven’t already done so. Learn More.
Important Information about Online Repeat Prescriptions:
- Click ‘medication’ to access repeat prescriptions
- Please clearly indicate the medications required. Tick the ones you want, click “repeat Selected Medications” button above this. It will open up a pop-up window for you to add a note if you want to. You must have pop-ups enabled.
- If your medication is not listed, you may need to call the nurse on 03 3478848 to check that you can get a repeat of that medication. Next time you see your doctor you can talk to them about making regularly requested medications “Long-term”. They’ll understand what you mean.
- Please be aware that some new medications require you to be seen again by a doctor after 3 months to review effectiveness. It is a requirement of the NZ Medical Council that all patients receiving scripts are reviewed on a regular basis.
- Prescriptions will take up to THREE working days to process. You must have seen the doctor in the last 6 months to discuss this medication and have NO outstanding accounts. You will be sent a text message to let you know when your script is ready.
- PLEASE CLEARLY indicate which pharmacy for us to electronically send it to (For example, there are three in Rolleston, so be very specific.)
- Please also enter your email address so we can invoice you.
- Children under 16 years cannot have their own portal access, you can still phone our nurses to order prescriptions for children under 16 years.
- You cannot order repeat prescriptions for any family members, you can only make appointments on their behalf.
