Your doctor or a health professional who has access to your medical records must complete an FP92A application form.
We'll send you a letter confirming your certificate is due to expire one month before the expiry date if you're under age 60.
If you're aged 60 or over, you're already entitled to free NHS prescriptions. You do not need to renew your medical exemption certificate.
If you need an NHS prescription before your renewed medical exemption certificate arrives, you must pay and ask the pharmacy for an FP57 receipt. You can use this to apply for a refund once you receive your certificate.
