Medical Forum / General / Pharmacy / February 2006Prescription exp dates?
Hello: Are there time limits on filling prescriptions? My wife has Multiple Sclerosis and takes pain medication when needed for it. She has a prescription from November 2005 for her pain medication. If it is brought to our local pharmacy can it be filled? Thanks, P every state varies, but usually it is 6 mo. from date written >every state varies, but usually it is 6 mo. from date written It varies by individual State....as Jason indicated Maryland requires an Rx be filled within 120 days (4 Months).. Bob G.. It may depend on the state that your in, and if the medication is a controled substance. For a non controlled substance in NY. you can fill the Rx upto one year of the issue date. You 3rd party plan may have other limitations. I would suggest to see her MD to issue a newly dated Rx, that should save you some hassle |
