My vet wrote "repeats" on the prescription. What does that mean?Updated a month ago

A repeat is an authorisation from your vet to have the same script dispensed again after the first supply, so a script with 1 repeat can be dispensed 2 times in total.

For example, if your vet writes 1 repeat, the script can be dispensed twice in total:

• First dispensing: your initial supply
• 1 repeat: one additional supply

1 repeat = 2 supplies in total. The number of repeats your vet writes on the script determines how many times the script can be dispensed.
