Prescriptions and refills for established patients of Chicago Pulmonary Specialists are routinely issued during our regular office hours (see above). You can make your request by calling our office at (847) 998-3434.
No refills are issued during the evenings, weekends, or holidays, as the doctor does not have access to your medical records during those times. It is helpful to anticipate your refill needs to avoid an interruption in your medication therapy.
