Frequently Asked Questions:

Is it important to treat high blood pressure (hypertension)--even without symptoms?

While having hypertension usually does not cause any acute symptoms, leaving high blood pressure untreated can be dangerous and lead to:

  • Heart Attacks
  • Strokes
  • Heart Failure
  • Dementia
  • Impotence
  • Kidney Failure

…and more.

Hypertension is defined as having a blood pressure above 130/80. However, it is important to understand that outpatient blood pressure treatment should only be started if your your baseline blood pressure is abnormal. Single measurements that are abnormal are not enough to establish the diagnosis. This can particularly be true when these measurements are based on measurements at the doctors office, where the patient might be nervous (‘white coat syndrome’). It is therefore important to measure your blood pressure in a relaxing environment, like your home using a home blood pressure cuff, or at a pharmacy. Position your arm in a way that the blood pressure cuff is roughly at the level of your heart.

How much does it cost to get a prescription?

It only costs $75 per online consultation, which includes any prescriptions that may be necessary–no hidden fees. If you have insurance, you can submit the encounter summary and receipt to your insurer and most of the time get reimbursed. If you don’t have insurance let the doctor know and we can provide you with coupons to save you money at the pharmacy.

How many months worth of medication can I be prescribed?

We are allowed to prescribe you up to three months worth of your medications, directly sent to your pharmacy of choice. 

What is the cost of the medication at the pharmacy?

We understand that medication expenses are a major concern for a lot of our patients. Therefore our doctors usually prescribe the generic version of the medication(s) (unless otherwise requested) and we send a special coupon code directly to the pharmacy to help you save money. You may also compare the approximate cost of the medication here and download your own coupon code.

How long does it take until I can pick up the prescription from my pharmacy?

The pharmacy will receive the e-prescription almost instantly at the time of the consultation. Depending on the pharmacy you will be able to pick up your prescription shortly after, usually in about 30-45 minutes after the consultation.

What does the process look like to get a prescription through QuickMD?
