Brief Answer:
No prescription here....

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I am sorry. Both medical ethics as well as laws of the state doesn't allow one to prescribe or refil medicines that are not available over the counter. You should meet the treating doctor and ask for refil.

In the meanwhile, you can always claim refund for this payment by writing it to YYYY@YYYY

Good luck and regards!!!
