What safety checks guide treatment decisions at Verra Health?
Short answer
A licensed physician in your state reviews your health information and decides whether treatment is appropriate. Share all medicines, supplements, allergies, and health conditions so the physician can assess risks. No treatment is risk-free. A prescription, video visit, or further evaluation may be needed based on your situation.
Safety starts with a medical review, not an automatic prescription. A licensed physician in your state reviews your visit and decides whether treatment is appropriate. Your health history may point to a need for more information, a video visit, testing, or in-person care before a treatment decision.
Tell the physician about all prescription medicines, over-the-counter medicines, and supplements you use. Include allergies, past reactions, ongoing health conditions, and whether you are pregnant or breastfeeding. These details help the physician assess possible interactions and reasons a medicine may not be suitable.
No medication is risk-free, and online care cannot replace every type of examination. Compounded medications are prepared by a licensed pharmacy for one patient and are not FDA-approved. Ask questions if the reason for a treatment or its risks are unclear.
Follow your prescription label and contact your physician or pharmacist about side effects or unclear instructions. Do not change your dose on your own. For severe symptoms, such as trouble breathing or chest pain, call 911 rather than waiting for an online reply.
