Let's say I was diagnosed with anxiety and take low-dose prozac (fluoxetine) and see a therapist once a month. I had already been diagnosed by another provider years before I even got into medicine. I have been taking prozac for years. Would it be appropriate to write a prescription for myself? Would a pharmacist fill it? I've read several threads about this but I seem to be getting mixed messages. Some people have written "yeah I write myself prescriptions all the time" and other people say "I don't know of any pharmacist who would fill a self-written prescription". Obviously I'm not talking about narcotics or anything like that, just regular old prescription drugs like prozac or viagra (not that I need viagra...).
Oh btw I'm an undergraduate... this is a hypothetical.
