Pick up new prescriptions
You can pick up new prescription orders at one of our VA Caribbean health care pharmacies.
We ask that you don't try to refill prescriptions in person, so our pharmacists can focus on providing care to Veterans with urgent needs and new prescriptions. Refills are only available online, by phone or mail.
