Please note: This is not a comprehensive list. If you are unsure if your medication can be prescribed through Instant Consult please our support line on 1300 003 310 or send us an email at support@instantconsult.com.au

Repeat prescriptions can be issued through Instant Consult, however, it is ultimately up to the doctor and what they deem clinically appropriate during consultation. Just like if you were to visit your local medical centre, we cannot guarantee how many quantities or repeats a doctor will issue on a prescription for you.

Our prescribing policies are implemented to ensure patients check in with a doctor regularly and promote safer prescribing practices. Whether you are seeing a doctor on Instant Consult, or your regular GP, prescribing many quantities or repeats is not recommended through telehealth.

Yes! Instant Consult's prescription service are available 7 days a week including public holidays, from 6AM to midnight so you can receive instant scripts at a time that works for you.

Our doctors will be unable to issue you a prescription unless you provide either an IHI or valid Medicare number. If you are not eligible for Medicare, you can will need to register for an Individual Health Identifier (IHI) number to receive an Electronic Prescription.
