Why does Ezimed only offer a “repeat prescriptions” service?
Medications have side effects. Patients may have severe reactions or allergic reactions to medications if taken for the first time. Therefore we do not offer prescriptions for new medications.
Patients applying for a repeat prescription will need to provide evidence that they are already on the medication. They will also be required to sms/MMS a copy of a previous prescription for the medication, or a copy of their doctors’ letter showing that they are already on the medication or had it before.
Doctors at Ezimed do not prescribe:
- S4 / S8 drugs or narcotics due to concerns about dependence and/or abuse of these drugs.
- Chemotherapeutic agents
- medications requiring authority approval.
We are able to prescribe for chronic illnesses such as:
- Hypertension
- Heart disease
- Emphysema / COAD
- Gastrointestinal problems.
Prescriptions can either be sent to patients by mail, or can be faxed directly to a selected pharmacy and the patient notified once done. If you nominate a pharmacy, you will be required to provide a phone,fax number, email and address for the pharmacy.
Prescriptions may take anywhere from 1-4 hours depending on workload of the doctors and the need to verify your medications. Only available from 0900-1700hrs Mon to Saturday.
