View and renew prescriptions

If your GP offers it, you can request renewal of your prescriptions directly from Medicines when you are logged in to Helsenorge. You will also find an overview of your prescriptions and how much is left on your prescription.

If your GP does not offer any digital services via Helsenorge, you will be notified of this when you log in. Even if your GP does not offer digital services, you will be able to find information about who your GP is and contact details of the GP surgery.

 For young people between the ages of 13 and 16 with parental consent 

If you are between 13 and 16 years old, you cannot currently renew prescriptions via Helsenorge. Contact your practitioner in another way if you need a new prescription.

    Please note that the power of attorney to view prescriptions and request repeat prescriptions is not the same as the power of attorney to collect goods on behalf of others.

    In order to collect medication or other goods from a pharmacy on behalf of others, you need to use a dedicated power of attorney. You can find a form you can use from the Norwegian Pharmacy Association (in Norwegian).

    • If one or more of the parents are registered at the same address as the child, both parents will be able to represent the child.
    • If neither parent is registered at the same address as the child, neither of them will be able to represent the child.
