After an in-person or video consultation, a NuHealth doctor can issue your prescription digitally — signed, verifiable, and ready for any pharmacy or for the NuHealth ePharmacy.
A registered doctor sees you first — in person or by video — and decides whether a prescription is right for you.
Every script carries the doctor’s details and a code any pharmacy can check at nuhealth.co.za/verify.
Order from licensed pharmacies on the NuHealth ePharmacy for delivery or collection; a pharmacist checks the script first.
Book a consultation with a doctor. If they decide medicine is needed, they issue the prescription digitally during or after the visit, and it appears in your NuHealth record.
Take it to any pharmacy, or order on the NuHealth ePharmacy; the pharmacist checks the script before your medicine is dispensed.
For medicine you take regularly, book a follow-up with your doctor. They review how you are doing and decide whether to repeat the script; it is never issued without a consultation.
Some problems need an examination or a test before medicine can be prescribed, and some medicines are tightly controlled. The doctor decides what is safe, and may ask you to be seen in person.
