Prescription Services

Walk-In Orthopedics offers prescription services to help in the alleviation of acute pain due to injuries. These services are typically provided by healthcare professionals such as doctors, nurse practitioners, and pharmacists. There are various ways in which medications are prescribed and dispensed to patients. The aim is to improve access to medications, enhance patient safety, and provide convenience for both patients and healthcare providers.

Certain medications require a medical prescription due to their potential for misuse, side effects, and the need for professional supervision to ensure they are used safely and effectively. These medications often treat conditions that require a healthcare provider's assessment and monitoring. Over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, on the other hand, are deemed safe for use without a prescription when taken as directed. They treat common ailments and symptoms and have a lower risk of misuse and fewer potential side effects. This regulatory distinction helps protect public health by ensuring that potent or potentially dangerous medications are used appropriately.
