Repeat Prescription Ordering Routine Audit

Audit how you order repeat prescriptions for timing gaps, lead times, pickup logistics and backups, with no advice on the medicines.

Added October 15, 2026. Written with AI assistance and checked for clarity and placeholders; not reviewed by a lawyer, accountant, clinician or other professional. How these prompts are made

The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.

[VERIFY] is an editorial flag, not a blank to fill. Wherever the prompt shows [VERIFY], check that item against a reliable source before you use it (what [VERIFY] means).

Please audit my routine for requesting repeat prescriptions and collecting them so that I do not hit avoidable delays. This is about timing, paperwork and logistics only. Do not comment on any medicine, dose or choice of treatment.

My details: the list of items I reorder, by name only [ITEM_NAMES], how many days each supply lasts [SUPPLY_DAYS_PER_ITEM], how I order (app, phone, pharmacy, clinic) [ORDER_METHOD], how long it usually takes to be ready, from my experience [USUAL_LEAD_TIME], pickup or delivery arrangement [PICKUP_ARRANGEMENT], and dates of the last two orders [LAST_ORDER_DATES].

Build a table with columns Item, Supply length, Date last collected, Next run-out date (show arithmetic), Latest safe order date using my lead time plus a buffer of [BUFFER_DAYS] days, Days from today, Status (On time / Order soon / Overdue / Cannot tell). Add a count by status. Identify clashes, such as two items running out on different dates that could be synchronised by asking the pharmacy or clinic whether that is possible, written as a question and marked [VERIFY]. Add a risk list for holidays, travel, a closed pharmacy and pickup problems. Finish with a calendar reminder plan and a message template of up to 70 words.

Guardrails: never suggest stretching, skipping or changing doses. If a person has run out, advise contacting the pharmacy or clinic promptly. Not medical advice.

Add a worked example with invented figures: collected 3 June, 28-day supply, 3-day lead time and 4-day buffer. Show the run-out date 1 July and order date 24 June.

Fill in before use

Optional: type your details and the prompt above updates. Nothing is saved or sent.

Replace each bracketed placeholder with your own details, then paste into Any AI or another assistant.

Item A (invented). Collected 3 June, supply 28 days.
Run-out date: 3 June + 28 days = 1 July.
Lead time 3 days plus buffer 4 days = 7 days.
Latest order date: 1 July - 7 days = 24 June.
Today 20 June: 4 days away. Status: Order soon.
Item B. Collected 10 June, supply 30 days. Run-out 10 July. Order by 3 July. Status: On time.
Clash note: Item A and B run out 9 days apart. Question for the pharmacy: "Can these be aligned to the same date?" [VERIFY]
Reminder plan: calendar alert 22 June for Item A, 1 July for Item B.
