What do I need to do every month for my prescription?

Included in your package is a guide outlining your specific dosage, the schedule you should follow, and when to increase the dose as directed by your doctor. Before preparing your medication, carefully read through this information to understand your dosing schedule. Your starting dose will be a low amount, which allows your body to adjust to the medication. Follow the dosing schedule your doctor has prescribed, and take your medication only once per day (or as otherwise directed).

If you have an active subscription, you will not need to manually request a refill or place a new order for your next month's subscription as it will automatically be processed, typically every 28 days. When it's time for your next subscription, your payment will be processed (if applicable), if you need a new prescription you will receive a notification to complete a new intake, if you complete a new intake it will be sent to your doctor for review and approval (typically within 24 hrs), and your prescription will be sent to the pharmacy for shipment.

For customers located in the United States that need to request a refill early or need to restart a subscription, you will need to submit your request to customer service by submitting a ticket at https://support.directmeds.com/portal/en/newticket?/, emailing help@directmeds.com, calling 888-696-7176, or in chat by selecting "Speak with a Live Operator."
