This includes medication history, claims information, allergy and adverse event information, and clinical notes relevant to medication therapy.

Generic Substitution: I authorize the pharmacy to substitute therapeutically equivalent generic medications when available unless the prescriber indicates dispensing of brand only.

Controlled Substances Acknowledgment: I understand that controlled substance prescriptions are subject to special regulations, may require verification of identity at pickup, and may have limits on refills. The pharmacy may refuse to dispense if lawful requirements are not satisfied.

Unless revoked earlier, this authorization will expire on the date provided below or one year from the date of my signature if no expiration date is provided.
