Have you tried asking a local pharmacist?

I'm not sure what the laws are for you. In the U.S. refills are only good for a year after the original prescription is filled, but I'm not sure what other countries ascribe to that.

Does anyone else know?

Thanks for your reply. Yes it's the same here in Australia. I was just hoping I could have filled it over our Easter vacation with all doctors were off duty but no luck!
