Getting Propecia refills from your doctor
You can put your wallet and HMO card back in your wallet. You do not have to visit your doctor each time to refill your Propecia prescription. Of course, for their own pockets, they would love for you to visit, but it really is not necessary. For most doctors, you will be able to request over the phone three sets of three-month refills. Save your co-pay money and simply call in the next three sets of Propecia refills. For some doctors, you can simply leave a message on their prescription line or with the receptionist, and they will automatically call in your Propecia refill to your pharmacy.
Then, at the nine month mark, most doctors will want you to come in for a visit (and fork over a co-pay) to evaluate the progress. For the $20 - $40 co-pay once a year, it is not too cost-prohibitive when you are gaining back your hair. Propecia is a long-term hair loss solution, but you will need to take it for the long-term to keep seeing results. Call in your Propecia refills as many times as possible before you need to pop in for another office visit.
