The Prescription
We can fill prescriptions from any licensed U.S. prescriber; prescriber may mean Physician, Optometrist, Podiatrist, Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant depending on what individual state you as the patient have seen the HealthCare professional in., State regulations vary significantly, but in general a Physician may order most or all types of medications by prescription for you or your family members, while other types of Health Care professionals may have limitations on what type of prescription drugs they may lawfully order for you or a family member. In addition with these "other types" of health professionals we may not be able to accept their prescriptions in our Connecticut based pharmacy. We know the regulations and will handle getting the lawful prescription from the appropriate Healthcare professional, usually the doctor.
