Order & Relax and Home Delivery FAQs


1.       Can I order my medication via phone call through any of the NUH Pharmacies?

           Yes, you may order medication via phone call through our Outpatient Pharmacies.

2.       Can I change the medication quantity at the point of collection?

           To avoid delays, please select the right quantity of medication when placing the order. We will require               additional time to process the changes if required.

3.       Can I order medication using a new prescription from polyclinics or other hospitals via your                       website?

           No, medication ordering via website is strictly for patients with valid prescriptions issued by NUH.

4.       Can I place orders whenever I run out of my medication?

           We would need a valid prescription to process your orders. You may check your available prescriptions             via the OneNUHS app. Please contact the respective clinics if you do not have a valid prescription.

5.       If I order my medication in the morning via phone call, can I collect them in the afternoon?

          The earliest time for collection will be the next working day.

6.       If I order my medication via the oneNUHS app, what is the earliest collection date?

7.       How will I know if my medication is ready?

          We will notify you by sending a text message to your registered mobile phone with the collection details.

8.       I want to use Medisave to pay for my medication.  What should I do?

           As the application to use Medisave for your medication is only valid on the day of collection, you may                 inform us of your request in advance via phone. Alternatively, you may inform our counter staff on the               day of the collection.  Do note that an additional 15 minutes would be needed for us to process your                 application. Kindly note that if there is no proper Medisave authorisation, your application may be                       rejected. Click  here for our contact details.
