Brief Answer:
Call new dr.'s office for 2 wks of rxs, or go to an urgent care clinic ASAP
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I'm sorry you are without your medications. You are withdrawing from your medications. I understand that you can't get in to see a new doctor for ongoing care for 2 weeks, but you can go into an urgent care clinic and they should refill the Synthroid and Premarin for 1 month or at least until you can get in to see a new doctor for ongoing care.
There are no over the counter medications that will replace the estrogen and thyroid hormone that you are withdrawing from. Go in to an urgent care clinic to see a doctor there ASAP and get restarted on them.
The other possibility is to call the nurse at the new doctor's office and ask for refills for the 2 weeks until you see the new doctor. As Premarin and Synthroid are not controlled medications (like narcotics), they may be willing to refill them with enough pills until you get in to see the doctor.
I hope this information helps. Please let me know if I can help further.
