By logging in to Helsenorge, you can view a summary of your prescriptions and dispensed medicines for the past three years.
Depending on the level of consent you have chosen, your prescriptions will appear in various places on your Helsenorge pages.
This service replaced mineresepter.no, which was withdrawn on 15 September 2018.
You can also be authorised to view other people's medicines and prescriptions, in order to help them keep track of their medication.

Helsenorge collects your active prescriptions from the Prescription Intermediary, which is a national database for electronic prescriptions, and your historical prescriptions from your Summary Care Record.
Prescriptions are shown in a list together with information about dispensed medicines and other pharmacy products. Paper and telephone prescriptions are also shown once they have been collected from the pharmacy.
In the dispensing history, you will see a list of dispensed prescriptions for up to the past three years.
In the prescription view, you can also view your children's prescriptions until they reach the age of 16. You must then opt to represent the child concerned, in the services on Helsenorge.
You will also see the prescriptions of other people who have given you power of attorney if this has been registered in the self-service solution on Helsenorge. In the same way as for children, you must then opt to represent the person who has given you power of attorney.
