I go to my doctors appointment this week and with no notice, my doctor has been put in the care of hospice due to terminal illness and his practice has been closed. i take the medication adderall. how do i get a prescription filled immediately?

Usually in-person Dr.: Adderall is a controlled substance, so patients on it usually have to see their primary care doctors, psychiatrists, or neurologists in person. A patient can ask his or her doctor's office who might be helping take care of the patients now that the doctor is in hospice. An urgent care clinic may or may not be able to give a temporary or partial refill in the meanwhile.

Adderall Rx: I think I have seen other posts by you. Neither the general health education site nor the telemedicine sites on HealthTap prescribe psychiatric medications. Adderall is a controled substance. I am sorry to hear of your doctor's health issues. Options include being seen at an urgent care location, getting a list of providers from your health insurer to include psychiatric nurse practioners &
