Question : Is there an online doctor that can prescribe Lortab pain meds for my migraines?
Hi,
Lortab is a schedule 3 drug according to the US FDA. It has a low to mid level abuse potential with proven medical use for moderate to moderately severe pain.
Today’s research indicates that a move toward individualizing the dosing of prescription agents is warranted and it can happen only after physical consultation / Your doctor will know about these drugs.
It would be unethical and inappropriate to prescribe you scheduled drugs without doing a proper examination.
I am sorry; an online doctor can only guide you and give you instructions but would not be able to write a script for the same.
I wish your pain subsides quickly and you return back to normal soon.
