Transferring My Alprazolam Prescription From Florida To Oregon
UpdatedI'll be moving to Oregon from Florida and I still have 3 refills for my alprazolam and prozac. Can I just call walmart and have my refills transferred to a walmart pharmacy in Oregon?

Well here you go!
"689.525 Out-of-state prescriptions.
(1) A prescription written by a practitioner licensed in a state or territory of the United States, other than Oregon, may be filled only if the pharmacist called upon to fill such prescription determines, in the exercise of professional judgment: (a) That it was issued pursuant to a valid patient-practitioner relationship; and (b) That it is authentic.
(2) However, if the practitioner writing the prescription is not known to the pharmacist, the pharmacist shall obtain proof to a reasonable certainty of the validity of the prescription.
(3) The provisions of ORS 689.515 authorizing generic substitution shall not apply to prescriptions described in this section unless authorized on the prescription. [1979 c.777 §36; 1981 c.666 §10; 1987 c.108 §6; 1993 c.571 §15; 1997 c.153 §1]"
The best person to ask would be your pharmacist to be certain. Eddy has posted the legal guidelines, but much is up to the pharmacist's discretion.
The FDA warns that Alprazolam carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects such as nausea, dizziness, headache, mood changes, and irritability.

Regarding the Prozac, that is not a controlled substance, so it shouldn't be a problem, at all.
Is there anything else I can help with?
