How to Transfer Your Prescriptions in 3 Simple Steps
Transferring your prescriptions is usually quick and requires minimal effort from the patient.
Step 1: Contact Viva Health Pharmacy
Start by contacting Viva Health Pharmacy either by phone, in person, or through the website.
Step 2: Provide Your Current Pharmacy Information
You will need to provide basic details about your current pharmacy, including:
- Pharmacy name
- Pharmacy phone number
- Medication name or prescription number
Step 3: Let the Pharmacy Handle the Transfer
Once the request is submitted, the pharmacy team will contact your previous pharmacy and complete the transfer for you. Patients usually only need to provide their basic information while the pharmacy manages the rest of the process.
In most cases, prescription transfers may take 1–3 business days depending on how quickly the original pharmacy responds.
What Information Is Needed for a Prescription Transfer?
To complete a prescription transfer, the pharmacy may ask for a few details, such as:
- Your full name and date of birth
- The name of your current pharmacy
- The phone number of the pharmacy
- The name or number of your prescription
With this information, pharmacists can securely transfer the prescription and any remaining refills to the new pharmacy.
Are All Prescriptions Transferable?
Most prescriptions can be transferred between pharmacies, but there are some exceptions. Certain medications, such as specific controlled substances, may require a new prescription from your doctor. In addition, prescriptions that have already been fully dispensed or previously transferred may not be eligible for transfer.
If you are unsure whether your medication can be transferred, the pharmacy team can review your prescription and provide guidance.
