A member asked:

Can you tell me if my doctor reissues a lost prescription but the prescription is subsequently found, can they both be filled?

Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Reissued Rx: The answer is that this is a REPLACEMENT prescription - not a prescription given so that you would get meds in addition to what was initially written for.
