Guest guest Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 Ann-- I live in Fla. in a rural area and there are clinics around here, but none can prescribe asthma medications. That's because the free clinics generally have no physician in them--just nurse practitioners and they can't prescribe any drugs for chronic diseases, which asthma is considered to be. --marty > ...are there any free clinics near you?

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 That is interesting...I live in rural Arizona, and our clinics have nurse practitioners as well, and they can write any script..including for pain here.
