Devon West Pharmacy

31/01/2026

• From 1 February 2026, some people with stable, long-term health conditions may be able to get a 12 month prescription from their doctor.
• Not everyone will get a 12 month prescription. Your prescriber will decide what is safe and appropriate for you.
• There will still be a maximum of three months’ supply (six months for oral contraceptives) at a time from your Pharmacy, as there is now.
• Patients will continue to only pay one prescription co-payment per prescription item, when they collect their first supply from the pharmacy.
• Patients will still need to collect their repeats from the same pharmacy. Repeats cannot be transferred between pharmacies.

• These changes will make it easier and cheaper for many people to get the medicines they need, with fewer trips to the doctor for prescriptions.

Please be patient as these major changes can take time for everyone to navigate as they roll out.
