Can a doctor prescribe medications through telemedicine?

Can urgent care telemedicine doctors give a prescription?

Yes. When the doctor considers that medication is warranted, they can write a prescription for a non-narcotic medication (i.e., non-controlled substances), which can be sent directly to the pharmacy of your choice.*

As soon as your consultation is over, your prescription will be sent electronically to your pharmacy. If for any reason, your pharmacy is unable to receive e-prescriptions, a traditional prescription will be generated for the doctors to sign and fax. All prescriptions are fully compliant and include all of the required information.
