Prescriptions & Medications A balanced approach to medication management
At GreenRX, we take a thoughtful approach to prescriptions, integrating conventional medications with natural alternatives when appropriate. Learn about our philosophy on medication management and how we work to optimize your treatment while minimizing side effects.
Our Prescription Philosophy
We believe in using the right tool for the right job when it comes to medications. While we emphasize natural approaches and lifestyle modifications, we recognize that appropriate medications play an important role in many treatment plans.
Our goal is to prescribe medications judiciously, using the minimum effective dose for the shortest necessary duration. We carefully consider the potential benefits and risks of each medication, taking into account your complete health picture, other treatments you're receiving, and your personal preferences.
Whenever possible, we look for opportunities to reduce medication dependence by addressing root causes and implementing supportive natural therapies.

Learn MoreIntegrating Natural Approaches
We often combine conventional medications with evidence-based natural approaches to enhance effectiveness and reduce side effects. Examples include:
- Using specific nutrients to mitigate medication side effects - Implementing dietary changes that improve medication efficacy - Adding botanical medicines that work synergistically with pharmaceuticals - Incorporating mind-body practices that may allow for lower medication dosages
This integrative approach often allows patients to achieve better symptom control with fewer side effects than either approach alone.
Electronic Prescribing
For your convenience and safety, we use electronic prescribing for all medications. This system:
- Sends prescriptions directly to your preferred pharmacy - Reduces the risk of prescription errors - Allows us to view your complete medication history - Automatically checks for potential drug interactions - Enables efficient processing of refill requests
You can request prescription refills through our secure patient portal or by contacting your pharmacy directly.
