By reading your patch box label, you can determine the number of refills you have remaining on your prescription. If there are refills remaining, you may go directly to the Pharmacy to obtain your prescription. You may use the Pharmacy voice mail (244-2511) to request refills be prepared for pickup. Leave your name, student ID#, phone number, and prescription number. Allow 24 hours before picking up your prescription (between the hours of 8:00 – 10:00 a.m., Monday - Friday).

If there are no refills remaining on your prescription, it indicates your provider wants to follow up with you for reassessment or that your pap smear and exam are due. To schedule a pap smear, call the Dial-A-Nurse at 333-2700. For pill refills, come to the Women's Health walk-in hours, where you may talk to a provider if you have questions or problems about your pills.

If you will not be enrolled in school during the upcoming semester, you may purchase packages of pills from the Pharmacy. If you have a prescription for birth control pills from a home physician, contact the Pharmacy about filling these prescriptions.
