Online prescription refills in California — reviewed by a board-certified MD.
If you live in California and are stable on a chronic medication — blood pressure, cholesterol, thyroid, diabetes, acid reflux, and more — you can request a refill online without an appointment. A board-certified Internal Medicine physician, personally licensed in California (Medical Board of California, license A167115), reviews every single request.
$59 flat for a 30-day supply of all your medications · $79 for 90 days · No insurance required · No charge if not approved
How it works for California patients
- Answer a few questions about the medication you already take — about 3 minutes from your phone, anytime.
- A physician licensed in California reviews your request personally — not a nurse line, not an algorithm — and verifies your prescription history through Surescripts.
- Your prescription is sent electronically to any licensed pharmacy in California — CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Costco, grocery-store pharmacies, independents, or mail-order — usually within an hour of payment.
Available across California
Dr. Refills serves patients throughout California, including Los Angeles, San Diego, San Jose, San Francisco, Fresno, Sacramento, Long Beach, Oakland, Bakersfield, Anaheim, and every smaller community in between — because everything happens online, where you live in the state makes no difference.
What we can refill
Chronic maintenance medications you're already established on, at your current dose: blood pressure medications (lisinopril, amlodipine, losartan, metoprolol), cholesterol medications (atorvastatin, rosuvastatin), diabetes medications (metformin, glipizide, and same-dose GLP-1 continuations), thyroid (levothyroxine), acid reflux, asthma inhalers, antidepressants, and many more.
We never prescribe controlled substances, never start new medications, and never change doses — those require your regular doctor.

Yes. Asynchronous telehealth for non-controlled medication refills is permitted in California, and our reviewing physician holds an active California medical license (verify at our licensure page or directly with the Medical Board of California).
No. Dr. Refills is cash-pay: $59 covers the physician review for a 30-day supply of all your medications ($79 for 90 days). You pay for the medication itself at your pharmacy, where you can use insurance, GoodRx, or cash — whatever is cheapest for you.
All of them. We send prescriptions electronically through the standard e-prescribing network, so any licensed pharmacy in California can receive your refill.
Most requests are reviewed the same day, and once approved and paid, your prescription typically reaches your pharmacy within an hour.
