SCDPH authorizes early prescription refills due to Weekend weather

COLUMBIA, S.C. (WOLO)– Anyone with a prescription needing a refill in the next few days can do so a little early.

Due to the impact of the winter storm, the South Carolina Department of Public Health has authorized a one-time early refill of schedule 3 to 5 prescriptions for valid refills that are due through Jan. 30.

Officials say this is due to the potential for interruptions of services and to reduce possible danger to people traveling following the storm.
