Filling a New Prescription
When your medical or dental provider orders a new medication, he/she will send a prescription to the pharmacy. The pharmacy will NOT FILL the prescription UNTIL you ask the pharmacy to fill the medication.
Requesting Refills
If your prescription has refills, you may order your refills by calling the number located at the top of your prescription label. Please be sure to have the following information available when you call the pharmacy: Patient Name, Address, Date of Birth, Telephone Number, Prescription Number, and, Medication Name. When requesting a refill, please provide the pharmacy at least 24 hours advance notice.
Chronic or Long-Term Medications

If you have not seen your medical provider in a while, he/she may ask you to come in for a medical visit prior to authorizing additional refills. The 10-day notice is needed to allow time for the pharmacy to communicate with your medical provider.
