Tip of the Day: How to Submit Refills - Physicians

What is a Refill?

A Refill is a reorder of a prescribed drug which has been authorized on the original prescription. The original prescription will specify how many refills were approved. They are much easier to place and faster to ship as the prescription has already been submitted, reviewed, and approved!

Benefits of Refills

  • Refills are much easier to place and faster to ship
