How much does a private prescription cost?

A private prescription itself isn’t taxed at the NHS rate — you pay the actual cost of the medicine plus a pharmacy dispensing fee, and that’s it. Prices therefore vary from a few pounds for a common generic to more for branded or specialist medicines. Because we’re an independent pharmacy buying at trade prices, we’re routinely cheaper than the high-street chains — and we tell you the exact price before you commit to anything.

Our promise: a transparent, itemised quote (medicine + dispensing fee), no obligation, and we’ll tell you honestly if you’d be better off getting the item on the NHS instead.

How it works

1

Send us your prescription details

Fill in the short form below — a photo of the prescription gets you an exact price fastest, or we can simply call you.

2

Get your quote — usually within the hour

A pharmacist checks the prescription and sends you an itemised, no-obligation price (Mon–Fri, 9am–5pm).

3

Post the original — we dispense same day

Happy with the price? Post us the original prescription (or your prescriber sends it electronically). We dispense the day it arrives and send it with free tracked delivery — or you collect in store.

Important: by law we can only dispense against a valid original prescription — a paper original, or a genuine electronic private prescription sent by your prescriber through a secure ePrescribing platform. Controlled medicines (e.g. some painkillers, sleep and ADHD medicines) always require the paper original by post — a photo or scan is never enough. Uploaded photos are used for quoting only.

Frequently asked questions

How much is a private prescription in the UK?

There’s no fixed charge — you pay the real cost of the medicine plus the pharmacy’s dispensing fee. A common generic might cost less than the NHS prescription charge; branded or specialist medicines cost more. We quote the exact price before you commit, itemised so you can compare us with any other pharmacy.

Can any pharmacy dispense a private prescription?

Yes — a valid private prescription from a UK-registered prescriber (GP, independent prescriber, consultant, dentist) can be dispensed by any UK pharmacy. You don’t have to use the pharmacy your clinic suggests, and prices vary a lot between pharmacies — which is why it’s worth getting our quote first.

How do I get my prescription to you?

After you accept the quote: post us the paper original (we’ll give you the address and it’s covered by our free-delivery promise on the way back), or ask your prescriber to transmit it via a secure electronic prescribing platform. Controlled medicines legally require the paper original.

Do you dispense prescriptions from online clinics and private GPs?

Yes — as long as the prescriber is UK-registered and the prescription is valid, we can dispense it, whether it’s from an online dermatology or menopause clinic, a private GP, a consultant or a dentist.

How long is a private prescription valid?

Six months from the date it was signed, for most medicines. Controlled medicines are shorter — 28 days. If yours is close to expiring, get in touch quickly and we’ll prioritise it.

How fast will I get my medicine?

We dispense the same working day your original prescription reaches us and post it with free tracked delivery — most patients have their medicine within 1–3 working days of posting their script. Collection in Bury is available the same day.

Is my prescription photo kept private?

Yes. The photo is used only to prepare your quote, is stored securely, and is deleted if you don’t go ahead. We’re a GPhC-registered pharmacy (No. 1126145) and handle all health information under UK GDPR.
