I’m running low on medication. How do I get a refill?
The prescriber should provide you with enough medication until your next appointment.
Please call your pharmacy and speak with a person (not just the automated line) to be sure a refill is not waiting for you at the pharmacy. New scripts will have a different Rx number than the one that has run out on your bottle, so if you enter that script number it will say there is nothing there. Please talk to a person to verify there is nothing new on file waiting for you.
If you are running low due to a cancelled appointment, please call 614.360.2600 Option 2, so we can reschedule your appointment and call in a refill to get you through until your appointment.
*If you are running low on your medication and do not have a refill, please call us immediately. We are closed on the weekends so please call before you run out completely.

Why does my pharmacy not have my script?
Often, this is due to a a new script being sent to the pharmacy. Please call the pharmacy and speak with a pharmacy staff person (don’t just use the automated line). The script numbers change so if you put in the prior script number in the automated system it will likely tell you that you don’t have anything available.
If you talk to a person and they cannot find a new script on file for you, please call us at 614.360.2600 option 2 and we will help resolve the issue with the pharmacy.
I think I am having side effects, what do I do?
If you are having a life threatening reaction, call 911 or go to your closest emergency room. For non-emergency situations, call our medication line at 614.360.2600, and press OPTION 2. A staff member will take your information and your prescriber will advise on appropriate action.
