A member asked:

Was wondering if i could talk to a doc about being put back on my adhd med but it is a controlled substance and not sure if you guys could, live in fl?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes. See an MD: You need to see an MD face-to-face. Regulations prohibit doctors from prescribing controlled substances during telemedicine visits. I would suggest you start by seeing your primary care doctor or get a referral from the last physician who prescribed your medication.
