Q: im severely sick from running out of my buprenorphine and cant get into a doctor until august 17th can i get the prescription here?

: No, not even on the paid Health Tap as buprenorphine is controlled. Not any doctor can prescribe buprenorphine for opiate addiction, a specific license is required. Your previous prescriber remains your best chance unless you broke the agreement.
