No. When you sign up for an account we’ll ask for some identifying information and the location of your current pharmacy. Once you confirm that you’d like to transfer your prescriptions, we will call your old pharmacy and make the switch. If any of your prescriptions have no refills remaining, we will contact your prescriber(s) for a new prescription. Information retrieved from your former pharmacy includes: medication name, strength, directions for use, quantity, original refills, refills remaining, prescriber, first fill date, last fill date. This allows us to know when you will run out of your current medications and allows us to find an ideal start date for your prescriptions.
If it is a medication that should start right away, we will ship you an interim supply to carry you through until your next supply arrives. For drugs that should start immediately, like an antibiotic, we recommend filling at a local retail pharmacy. If it’s not urgent, we will wait to start the medication until your next cycle starts to decrease confusion. We ship a new UneekDose™ pack every month.
If you have a medication with frequent dose changes, we may put that medication in a separate packet, or send a standard pill bottle with clear instructions. We do this so that you can easily change your dosing without changing the rest of your UneekDose™ pack. In all situations we work closely with you and your healthcare provider to deliver the solution that best fits your unique situation.
Every UneekDose&trace; pack comes with a Medication List that includes images and instructions for each medication. We make it very easy and clear to understand how each medication should be taken. We can also put specific medications in a separate packet to reduce confusion around instructions.
