You can make your request by calling our office at (410) 644-1880 and selecting option 6 when you hear the phone message. No refills are issued during the evenings, weekends, or holidays, as the doctors do not have access to your medical records during those times. It is helpful to anticipate your refill needs to avoid an interruption in your medical therapy.
