Can New Prescription Of Ativan For Anxiety And Constant Panic Attack Be Written By Urgent Care?

I have just moved to Toledo, Oregon and I have Medicare insurance. I see a psychiatrist once a month to refill an anxiety medication, Ativan. I have run out of the medication and I am having panic attack constantly which is associated with my PTSD. Where do I go to get a refill asap? Would urgent care be able to write a new prescription?

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

You can go to urgent care and they could prescribe Ativan, but how much dose they would prescribe you that depends upon the doctor. He could refill it or prescribe you three or four tablets, that depends upon your relation with doctor, but they can prescribe it. In case they refuse to refill it, you can consult your psychiatrist.

Thanks
