Welcome to the tag category page for Emergency Response!
Emergency medication refers to medication that is needed urgently in situations where a person has run out of their regular medication or their medication routine has been interrupted due to an emergency. Laws regarding emergency prescription refills may vary by state. In such situations, it may be possible to get a one-time medication renewal after a review of the patient's medical history. Emergency prescription requests are used to obtain medication that prevents a person from becoming severely unwell. Medication-assisted treatment is also used during emergencies, specifically for opioid use disorder in jails and prisons during the reentry process. One can get emergency medication from their local pharmacy, and if that pharmacy is closed, they can visit any other pharmacy that has the necessary medication in stock.
