Can I Dispense a Prescription in Northern Ireland, Scotland, or Wales?
Yes! SignatureRx private e-prescriptions comply with The Human Medicines Regulations 2012, which apply across the entire UK, including Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales.
This means that your SignatureRx prescriptions can be dispensed in any of these regions.
It can be a little confusing because NHS e-prescriptions aren’t available everywhere, but the law allows private electronic prescriptions to be dispensed throughout the UK.
