prescription refills

Repeated pharmacy orders

Prescription refills are additional supplies of medication obtained after the original prescription has been used up.

Most prescriptions allow a set number of refills before requiring a new prescription from the doctor: I need to pick up my prescription refill at the pharmacy.

Controlled substances often have stricter refill limits or require new prescriptions each time.
