Dear
Patient: Please use this form only to renew your regular medications.
Give us one to two weekdays to call the medications into your pharmacy. Please
call your pharmacy, rather than our office, to verify that this has been done.
If you need them sooner, please call the office directly and leave a voice
message on the refill line; it is checked frequently during the day by our
nurses. If your primary doctor is not available, one of the others will review
your chart and authorize the refill. Therefore don't be alarmed if the doctor's
name on your prescription bottle is not that of your primary doctor. You may also
ask your pharmacy to contact us for routine annual prescription refills.
We
would like to refill all of your regular medications at the same time each year.
We require that you be seen by your doctor at least once a year. We would also
like you to have blood work at least once a year to check for any adverse effects
on your liver or kidneys. As a courtesy to you, we will give you a one-month refill,
if you are running out before your appointment.
NARCOTICS
ARE REFILLED ONLY DURING OFFICE HOURS.
In addition, by federal
law, certain medications cannot be called in, but require a written prescription.
