About this Service
The Medication Care and Review (MCR) service, formerly known as CMS, is a serial prescription service. Register with Largue Pharmacy to have your regular repeat medication dispensed and ready for you to collect.
A serial prescription is a prescription for medicines you need to treat your long-term condition (your repeat medication).
It looks like a normal prescription but lasts for 24 or 48 weeks.
With a serial prescription, you can get your repeat medicines directly from the pharmacy where you are registered. You won’t need to see or phone the Doctor to request your medication. Serial prescriptions last for either 24,48 or 56 weeks and Largue Pharmacy will dispense it in instalments (either every month or every 2 months depending on your GP’s instructions).

Ask at the Pharmacy to be registered, once registered your GP will assess your suitability. Don’t be running around the houses to get your prescription, no more phoning your GP every month to get your prescriptions, no more waiting to get your regular prescription dispensed. Largue Pharmacy will comprehensively manage your serial prescriptions, please contact us to get registered today.
