Why We Request Prescriptions
While we strive to make the ordering process as easy as possible, prescriptions are required for certain products due to:
-
Manufacturer requirements: Some manufacturers mandate a prescription to ensure proper usage and patient safety.
-
Federal and state law: Certain medical products are classified as prescription-only under regulatory guidelines.
You can submit an existing prescription — it does not have to be newly written. Many prescriptions are valid for “lifetime” or “99 months” and may be reused for continued therapy. If your prescription includes a set time frame or limited number of refills, our team can assist in determining its validity for your current order.
Who Can Write a Prescription?
Prescriptions must be issued by a licensed medical provider. Acceptable prescribers include:
-
Medical Doctor (MD)
-
Doctor of Osteopathy (DO)
-
Nurse Practitioner (NP)
-
Physician Assistant (PA)
-
Naturopathic Physician (ND)* (*as permitted by your state)
Each prescription must clearly include:
-
Patient’s full name
-
Prescribing provider’s full name and contact details
-
Provider’s signature
Types of Products That May Require a Prescription
While not all items sold by Clara Care+ require a prescription, the following product categories often do:
-
Diabetes supplies (e.g., continuous glucose monitors, lancets)
-
Urological supplies
-
Compression garments with high pressure ratings
-

Special Note About Needles and Syringes
Although most U.S. states allow the purchase of needles and syringes without a prescription, it is your responsibility to ensure compliance with local, state, and federal regulations. Clara Care+ reserves the right to cancel or hold any order for these items if it cannot be lawfully fulfilled without a prescription.
International Prescriptions
We accept valid international prescriptions. Please make sure:
-
The patient’s full name is clearly written
-
If the name is unclear, write your Clara Care+ order number on the prescription to prevent delays
