was supposed to put it in yesterday but forgot, then also forgot today.

Got to wait to Monday now, but it takes 48 hours so will run out Monday.

What can I do.

If you have an OOH option they can usually give you a short script until you can get your main one. Either that or speak to the surgery on Monday and explain the situation. You won't be the first to forget.

If you regularly use the same pharmacy it's worth asking if they will give you an emergency supply. You will either pay or they may take it off the amount your prescribed when you take your prescription into them in a few days.

I hope I can get it sorted Monday, what an idiot.

can you have it on an auto repeat/managed thing in future so you only have to be reminded a million times to pick them up?

Most GPs have a system with a local chemist now, where you have it automatically renewed. Look into that to stop this happening again

As for now, speak to the pharmacist where you normally go. It will possibly take a call to your GP, but they should be able to give a couple of days worth without prescription. If you're concerned that won't work, speak to the GP yourself, they may sort a script out for you from a phone call, mine would

Phone the doctors and explained to the receptionist and prescription will be ready tomorrow.
