Is it possible for my local medical centre to fax/send my prescription to a pharmacy near me, or must i hand over a physical copy to the pharmacist?

It possible : Electronic medical records (EMR) are replacing the paper charts. Almost all the doctors, clinics and hospitals are electronic. There are HIPPA complain means of communication between pharmacy and doctors are available now.

Yes: Your GP may be able to do this for some things but not all. Best to check with them

See below: Agree with Dr.Stelzner. The exceptions are narcotics or controlled substances. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex. Get HPV vaccine
