Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use an eScript at any pharmacy in Australia?

Yes. eScripts are part of a national system. You can use your token at any participating pharmacy across Australia, including major chains and independent chemists.

Do eScripts expire?

Yes. In Australia, most PBS prescriptions (including eScripts) expire 12 months from the date they were written. After this, you will need a new prescription from your GP.

What happens if I delete my eScript SMS?

If you lose your token, you can contact your GP to have it reissued. However, if you store your scripts in MediRemind as soon as you get them, you'll always have a backup even if the SMS is deleted.

Can I manage eScripts for my family?

Yes. MediRemind allows you to create separate profiles for children, partners, or elderly parents, keeping everyone's eScripts and medications organized in one place.

Is my health data private?

Yes. MediRemind stores your data locally and does not share it with third parties, insurers, or pharmacies without your direct action.
