Fill in the form and click Calculate to see results
This calculator helps you determine when you should request a prescription refill based on your current supply, dosage, and pharmacy processing time. By planning ahead, you can avoid running out of important medications.
The calculator provides multiple results:
- When your current supply will run out
- When you should request a refill
- How many days you have until action is needed
For most medications, it's recommended to request refills 7-10 days before running out, but this may vary based on your pharmacy's processing time.
- Enter today's date (or adjust if calculating for a different date)
- Input how many pills you currently have left
- Enter your daily dosage (how many pills you take each day)
- Specify the days supply from your last prescription (typically 30, 60, or 90 days)
- Enter how long it typically takes to process your refill
- Choose how many days before running out you want to be reminded
After clicking "Calculate," you'll see when your current supply will run out and the optimal date to request your next refill.
