More information about EPS

You no longer have to collect your repeat prescriptions from your GP. Instead, your GP will send them electronically to your chosen pharmacy, saving you time.

You will have more choice about where to get your medicines from because you can choose any pharmacy which offers EPS.

You need to choose which pharmacy you want to receive your electronic prescription. This is called nomination.

You can nominate (choose) any pharmacy operating full EPS. You do not have to nominate a pharmacy near your GP practice. But you can only nominate one pharmacy at a time.

You can ask your GP or pharmacy to add your nomination for you. You do not need a computer to use EPS.

To nominate Pharmacy2U all you need to do is click here or call our customer service team on 0113 265 0222.

I can do other things like shopping, knowing that my prescription will be left in a safe place if I am out when it is delivered.

I get my medication delivered to work because I work full-time - it means I don't have to go to the GP or the chemist. It's just so easy.
