If your usual chemist is open they will often help you out with a few pills to see you through till you can get a new script from doctor.

If you get a regular prescription from chemist, he will probably be able to help and he will request a prescription of GP. I don't get prescriptions from GP but the local chemist requests it when due so I have no problem.

If you have a regular prescription through the same pharmacy they will normally issue you with an emergency supply to last until you can get a prescription
