Online prescriptions in Headford: what to expect

You cannot simply order a prescription online — a doctor has to assess you first. With DrCall you book a short video or phone consultation from Headford, discuss the medication and your health with an Irish-registered GP, and, where the doctor considers it safe and appropriate, a prescription is issued.

Repeat medication is usually reviewed against your history, so have your current medicines, doses and the date of your last review ready. Your doctor may decline to prescribe, or ask to see you in person, if it is not safe to do so remotely.

  • From €35, charged only once confirmed
  • Doctor assessment first — no “order and pay” prescriptions
  • Sent electronically to the pharmacy you choose, where appropriate
  • Repeat medication reviewed by an Irish-registered GP
