Hello,
I'm currently seeking a medical waiver for a PRN propanolol prescription for situational anxiety. The prescription was active from August 2024 to September 2025, by my current prescribing physician. My mom was the one collecting the medications since I had it on autofill and lived in a different city from my regular pharmacy and prescribing physician.
I have a doctor's letter stating that I haven't taken the medication since January 2023 (when it was prescribed by a previous doctor), which would put me at nearly 36 months without taking the drug. However, I've read some places that even with the doctor's note, what matters most is when the prescription was filled. I'm mostly getting information from people in ROTC, and I believe USUHS has a different review board. Wondering if anyone is currently seeking a waiver / has in the past and what their experience was like. I'm very worried about getting denied.
