Can I Get an Emergency Prescription Refill Online?
Last updated:
Urgent online bridge refills may help with stable non-controlled medications, but medical emergencies are not suitable for this service, and Bidwell does not prescribe controlled substances.
Short answer: Sometimes. If you ran out of a stable non-controlled medication, an online bridge refill may help, but emergencies, unstable symptoms, and controlled substances are not appropriate for this service.

Chest pain, trouble breathing, stroke symptoms, severe allergic reaction, suicidal thoughts, severe pain, uncontrolled symptoms, or pregnancy-related emergencies require urgent or emergency care.
