Before initiating the transfer, make sure you have:
Current pharmacy name and contact information
Medication names, strengths, and quantities
Your prescription number(s) (if available)
Your insurance information (optional but helpful)

Contact your current pharmacy to verify your prescriptions
Confirm prescription details with your prescribing provider if necessary
