Hello, can doctors manage and prescribe birth control pills and medications for anxiety and depression on the premium paid service?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

With periodic exams: Virtual health care is not "online shopping for prescription medications" and needs each patient to have an in-person doctor to do in-person exams periodically. For example, after an in-person exam has cleared a healthy woman for starting birth control pills, she may be able to get follow-up care online for the rest of that year. Psychiatric meds and certain other drugs are not given on HealthTap.
