Can I get a prescription from an online consultation?
Yes. After an online consultation, your doctor can issue a digital prescription — just as valid as a paper one and saved straight to your account, ready to use immediately at any pharmacy, online or local.
Where to find it
- Open your dashboard and go to Prescriptions (or open the completed appointment).
- View the prescription with medicines, dosage and instructions.
- Download or print it, or send it to a pharmacy.
Using your prescription
- Order the medicines through HelloDr's pharmacy for home delivery, or
- Take the downloaded/printed prescription to any local pharmacy.
Good to know
- Doctors prescribe based on clinical judgement; some medicines may require an in-person examination first, and the doctor will tell you if so.
- Each prescription is stored under the correct patient (you or a dependant), building a useful medication history over time.
- Keep your prescriptions — they help future doctors avoid harmful combinations and repeated trials.
Questions about a specific medicine or dose should go to the prescribing doctor via chat rather than changing anything on your own.
