If you're looking to refill your prescription, here’s what you need to know:
🗓️ Appointment May Be Required
For certain medications (especially newly prescribed ones), a follow-up appointment is required before refills can be approved.
This allows your provider to:
Check how you're responding to the medication
Adjust dosage if needed
Ensure it’s the right treatment for you
Example: If you were prescribed a 30-day supply of a new medication (like Buspirone), a follow-up visit is usually scheduled about a month later to review progress.
✅ What Happens After the Follow-Up?
If the provider confirms the medication is working well:
Refills may be authorized
Future follow-ups could be spaced out (e.g., every 3 months)
📞 How to Proceed
To request a refill:
Check if a follow-up is needed (especially for new medications).
Attend your scheduled appointment or reach out to schedule one.
After the appointment, the provider can submit the refill to your pharmacy if appropriate.
