It’s Easier Than Ever to Refill All Your Prescriptions

We all have so many demands on us all the time that calling to renew prescriptions can be a chore. Who has the time to sit on hold or the patience to interact with an automated phone system? A 2013 study estimated that you’ll spend 43 days of your life on hold. We’re hoping to help change that through our online patient portal—Follow My Health.

 

A Vital Part of Supporting Good Health

Around one in five people with chronic conditions like asthma and high blood pressure fail to renew prescriptions and, as a result, do not take their medications on a regular basis. Keeping your medications straight and making sure you renew prescriptions is a vital part of improving chronic conditions. But, too often, life gets in the way. You get too busy to make the phone call or you don’t have the prescription number handy when you want to call to renew.

When a patient is unable to renew a prescription, the results can be more serious than just a return of symptoms. In the case of asthma, prolonged attacks can lead to scarring and permanent lung damage. Untreated high blood pressure can cause damage to your arteries that can, in turn, lead to strokes, heart attacks, kidney damage and other issues.

Other medications cannot be safely discontinued without tapering off. By ensuring that you’re never caught off guard and run out of your medication, you can enjoy a better, more even level of health.
