I always ask for a prescription request for the GP because the hospital will only give you a very limited supply and you end up going to the GP anyway .

Tho no help to you now ,and of course it's quicker to get stuff from hospital pharmacy .

Trouble is when you're not feeling well it's easy to get things wrong .

I have in the past asked the dr at hospital if I can get the prescription for ds2 at a normal pharmacy, as the queue at the hospital one invariably takes at least an hour - not fun with a toddler Hmm. For some medicine they can tell you the over the counter stuff to buy to save you the wait....
