Frequently Asked Questions

Can you get a prescription refill while traveling?

Yes! From our platform, you can easily get a prescription refill while traveling. Our licensed doctors provide emergency refills and send your prescription to a nearby pharmacy. With 24/7 access, we make it convenient to stay on top of your health while traveling.

How can I check if I have refills remaining on my prescription?

You can check the number of refills remaining on your prescription by looking at the prescription label, where details about remaining refills are typically listed under “Refills” or a similar term. Alternatively, you can contact your pharmacy directly, and they will review your prescription records to confirm if refills are available. Many pharmacies also offer online portals or apps to view your prescription status conveniently. If your last prescription was filled with us, you can also check your refill status online by connecting to our system or contacting our customer service team.

Are there medications that require a new prescription even if I take them regularly?

Yes, certain medications require a new prescription, even if you take them regularly. These typically include specialty medications, requiring ongoing monitoring or specific authorization for each refill to ensure safety and effectiveness. Always consult your healthcare provider or pharmacist to understand the requirements for your specific medication.

Why do some medications require a new prescription every time?

Some medications require a new prescription every time due to:

Regulatory requirements: Controlled substances are regulated to prevent misuse and require frequent reassessment by a doctor. These are usually not prescribed online without an in-person visit.
Health monitoring: Certain medications need close monitoring to ensure safety and effectiveness, necessitating a new prescription.
Expiration of prescription validity: In some regions, prescriptions are only valid for a set period (e.g., 6 months to 1 year).

Can I get a prescription refill without insurance?

Yes, you can often get a prescription refill without insurance or a regular doctor visit, though specific options depend on the medication and your circumstances. Some medicines may be eligible for renewal without seeing your doctor, especially if they are routine prescriptions and your pharmacist can authorize an emergency refill. For urgent needs, consider visiting urgent care, where they can assist with specific prescription refills if appropriate. If you require an emergency refill, such as for Adderall or other time-sensitive medications, contacting your pharmacy is an excellent first step, as they may be able to provide a short-term emergency supply. Many pharmacies and third-party services offer solutions, including online consultations or telehealth services. If you’re wondering how to get a prescription refill at urgent care or without insurance, urgent care centers can help, and some pharmacies and online services offer discount programs to assist with medication costs. Always check with your provider or pharmacy about how to refill your prescription without a doctor’s visit in your specific situation.
