Features of online forms
Pre-fill feature available - treatment permit applications
Treatment permit applicants are now able to save their prescriber details after completing the form. Simply tick the “Remember Me” checkbox and this will save your details, enabling you to use these again next time, saving you time.
Note: the “Remember Me” function is browser and computer-specific.
If you use one computer the first time and then a different computer the next time you submit information, the previously saved details using "Remember Me" tick box will not be available. The same applies if you use the Google Chrome browser initially to complete the form, and then use Microsoft Edge browser to complete it (previous Internet Explorer), you won't be able to access the saved prescriber details.
We therefore advise that you use the same computer and same web browser each time when completing the forms online.
This feature is not available with Windows XP or Windows Vista operating systems.
