Medication Refills

If you are currently taking a medication and have documentation, Dr. Shivani can submit an e-prescription for purchase and pick-up at your local pharmacy. Conditions the doctor commonly prescribes medication refills for are listed below:

Please be informed that Dr. Shivani cannot replace your primary care physician. Dr. Shivani cannot start a regimen of maintenance medication, and require proof of recent prescription for all refills. Dr. Shivani also generally cannot increase the initial dosage of a particular medication as suggested by your primary care physician. For your safety, we limit refills to no more than 90 days within a six month period. The decision to provide a refill and the quantity is at the discretion of the provider. Be sure to share any recent information you have about your condition that can help facilitate your refill (for example recent lab tests, notes from your doctor and blood pressure readings.)

Narcotic pain relievers and controlled substances regulated by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency or regulated under State law, such as Tramadol, Carisoprodol, Fiorcet, Pseudoephedrine, Armodafinil, specific anticonvulsants including Gabapentin (Neurontin), or drugs considered to be “elective” medications, such as medications to treat erectile dysfunction, hair loss and weight loss, will not be prescribed or renewed by Dr. Shivani.

If you are interested in a particular prescription, but are unsure if it is able to be e-prescribed, please review our prescription policy before requesting an online consultation.
