- Acute Prescriptions: Issued for short-term treatments like infections or pain relief.
- Repeat Prescriptions: For long-term conditions, allowing reorders without a GP visit.
- Emergency Prescriptions: For urgent medication, often outside regular hours.
- Monitored Dosage System (MDS): Organises multiple medications into blister packs for easier use.
