Why is my prescription taking so long to arrive?

Most doctors work part time with varying clinic slots across the week. Prescription writing and posting will usually only be done during Psymplicity time. Your doctor may have had several other appointments on the day you saw them and may only get to writing your prescription when they are next in clinic, one or two days later.
Please do not assume your prescription was written and posted on the day of your appointment.
