Not recomended: Self medicating on self diagnosing may contribute to delayed care or lack of appropriate care. Your physician, either PCP or pulmonary specialist or his or her partners should be able to help you. Continuity of care would be seriously affected otherwise. Health Tap is a platform helping patients get medical advise, in your case you seem to need a refill that is easily obtained from your doc.

Not on this site: State medical boards require a physician to have an established relationship, a retrievable patient record, recent history & physical with vital signs to prescribe any medication. Failure to comply can result in loss or restriction of their license. If you need refills on medications you need to contact the originating doc and comply with their refill requirements. They refill if appropriate.
