Request Instant Scripts Online From Expert Doctors
Many Australians today have come to rely on instant scripts online when time constraints make it difficult to head to a clinic.
For those in regional areas, the effort involved in receiving medical advice can be even greater, with long distances and fewer options. These steps can add stress to what is already an inconvenient situation, making it harder to address simple, non-emergency health needs, like a refill or same day prescription, quickly and efficiently.
MediLeave is designed to help Australians manage everyday healthcare needs without disrupting their schedule. In addition to providing an electronic prescription service, we help reduce the challenges of accessing healthcare, especially for people living in regional and remote areas of Australia, by providing medical advice, referrals, travel health essentials and more online.
With our service, you can schedule care around your day.
Instead of arranging a clinic visit, users can request prescriptions or eScripts online using their phone or computer, making the process easier to fit into a busy day.
On top of making prescription requests, you can also request doctor-issued documentation for work, study or carer’s leave when appropriate, helping you meet such requirements or get instant scripts online in Australia without unnecessary delays.
Meanwhile, to get a sick certificate online through our platform, all requests are reviewed by AHPRA-registered doctors who assess your condition to ensure care remains safe and appropriate.
When approved, the online doctor prescription is sent directly to the user’s phone or email within minutes, making it easy to access the medications you need even when you have limited time to travel for an in-person doctor visit.
We can help with everyday prescription situations that arise unexpectedly.
As a prescription online service, our platform supports a range of everyday prescription needs. For example, you may need a repeat script after realising you’re running low on regular medication during a busy week. Instead of scheduling a clinic visit and having to wait for days, you can turn to our flexible same-day consultations and quickly request instant scripts online without missing a dose.
Our service is also useful when a new, non-emergency concern appears and medical advice is needed before starting treatment. In certain instances, mild side effects, changes in routine, or other practical issues may require adjusting a current medication.
We help users seek guidance from a doctor, who will assess the situation and determine whether an online GP prescription, referral, online sick certificate or other medical advice is appropriate. This ensures decisions are appropriate for you and your specific health needs and not automatically approved without qualified consideration.
All that said, it is important to note that our platform is not intended for emergencies. Urgent medical issues should always be directed to emergency care or a hospital emergency department.
Telehealth services reduce challenges with distance for rural and regional areas.
In rural and regional locations, getting a prescription often involves long travel times, time away from work or family, and limited appointment availability. This can make even simple healthcare needs feel difficult to manage.
This is why MediLeave offers a more practical option for users to request online medication scripts, all without needing to travel or rearrange their entire day.
By connecting users to an online doctor consultation Australia-wide, the service supports a more flexible and accessible healthcare experience.
In addition to telehealth prescriptions, we also provide you with access to consultations, blood test requests, travel health services and access to a telehealth doctor in Australia for a range of non-emergency needs. A qualified clinician reviews each request to ensure appropriate and responsible care tailored to your needs.

Frequently asked questions
When can I request instant scripts online?
At MediLeave, you can request instant scripts online at any time, as our bookings are available 24/7.
A doctor will review each request to assess the situation and determine whether a prescription or specialist referral online is clinically appropriate, ensuring that care remains safe, responsible and based on individual needs.
What do I need to request instant scripts online?
When requesting online prescriptions or eScripts in Australia, you will need to provide a few key details, such as your personal information and a short summary of your health concern or request.
It is also a requirement in Australia that, in order to receive an eScript, you must either have a Medicare number or an Individual Healthcare Identifier (IHI). This is because your identity needs to be verified through the national healthcare system.
If you don’t have either of these, you can still have a telehealth consultation and receive a paper prescription instead.
Getting an IHI is the workaround if you want a digital prescription. You can still apply for an IHI online via myGov using an ID like a passport, even if you’re:
- a visitor
- an international student
- not eligible for Medicare
Once you have an IHI, you can use eScripts like anyone else.
How private are script consultations with a doctor?
Even with access to the best online doctor Australia has to offer, script consultations are conducted privately on a one-on-one basis, ensuring a personal and discreet experience.
At MediLeave, users join a queue and receive a direct call from a doctor, allowing the discussion to remain confidential. All information provided is treated as personal and sensitive health data in line with Australian privacy laws.
To support data protection, we use 256-bit bank grade security and encryption to protect your personal and medical information throughout the consultation process.
How do repeat prescriptions work with escripts?
For repeat prescriptions, your pharmacist will send you a new QR code after each repeat is dispensed. This happens until all the repeats are complete, so you will need to keep the new message until it’s time to get your medicine again.
If you accidentally delete a message with a QR code you will need to go back to your doctor to ask for a new eScript, just like you would if you lost a paper script.
Are online scripts safe?
Yes. Your details and script are kept private and secure through encryption (a secure way of sending information). Your script can only be ‘unlocked’ by a pharmacist.
What type of medication can I request?
Our team of Partner Doctors are fully registered Australian doctors who can prescribe any medication that is clinically appropriate for your needs. All our doctors follow AHPRA guidelines to ensure safe and responsible care.
Please note that some medications cannot be prescribed via a telehealth consultation such as S8 medications, controlled substances, narcotics or any controlled drugs and medications requiring close monitoring by a doctor. Our partner doctors reserve the right to decline prescribing any medication or refusing to provide Medical Certificates, based on their professional medical advice.
Am I guaranteed to receive a prescription?
At MediLeave we uphold the highest standards of healthcare. Online Prescriptions will only be issued if deemed appropriate by our doctors.
There are various reasons why you may be declined access for a prescription, and the doctor has the authority to decline your request if they determine that it is not in your best interest or suitable for your condition. Other reasons could be due to contraindications, your medical history or the absence of a definitive diagnosis. In such circumstances, the doctor will recommend an alternative treatment that is better suited to you or recommend that you seek further assistance and advice in person.
What if my online prescription does not come through to my phone or email as expected?
1. First of all, check with the doctor that they have your correct details- a typo on your phone number or email can create this problem. Sometimes there might have been an issue with internet/ wi-fi connection at the moment the eScript was sent, and it might take a few minutes to come through to you.
2. If it still does not arrive, the doctor can double check on their side to see if there was an issue with sending it (this can happen if there is a problem with a person’s Medicare details or “IHI” number (individual health identifier).
3. If the issue still persists the doctor may try to “re-send” it to you, and see if that works.
4. If this still fails, please email our team : info@medileave.com.au for assistance.
Do all pharmacies accept online scripts?
Yes, most community pharmacies accept electronic prescriptions (escripts) An eScript is a digital version of a paper script, which the doctor sends you to your phone/email as a QR code or token. Whilst most pharmacies accept and can process escripts, it is best to check with the pharmacy if they are able to accept escripts as some small pharmacies, for example, may not be equipped to process escripts yet.
Can I order a script on behalf of another person?
Yes, if you are a carer or guardian, although the patient needs to provide their consent to the doctor.
What medications can not be prescribed online via telehealth
Our Partner Doctors cannot prescribe Schedule 8 (S8) or Schedule 4D (S4D) medications via telehealth.

Once the doctor approves your prescription during your consultation, the script is sent instantly via sms or email to you, within minutes
