Medication Refill
Providing Everything You Need
Medication Refill Policy
Before you request a medication refill, contact your pharmacy and ask them if refills are available. Often refills are authorized, you simply have to ask the pharmacy to fill the prescription.
Medication issues are always best addressed at in-person appointments with a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner. In addition, where a client is evaluated via video chat and controlled substance prescriptions are indicated, please note that federal law generally requires a prior in-person encounter between the prescribing practitioner and the client, with certain exceptions.
Controlled Substances
Conservative Medication Management
Controlled substances are regulated by the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA). Prescriptions for Schedule II Controlled Substances which include stimulant medications require in-person appointments and no refills are allowed by the DEA. Our goal as a group is to minimize and optimize the utilization of medication when appropriate.
​
Medication refills will be reviewed by your treating Nurse Practitioner.
​
However, if you are a client and need to address an issue related to a medication you should schedule an appointment.
