Approach to respiratory & allergy
We begin with history and goals, follow guidelines, and prescribe only when benefits outweigh risks. Treatment plans often combine lifestyle approaches with medication when indicated. We provide clear instructions, side‑effect guidance, and follow‑up so you’re supported from start to finish. Asthma, allergies, and respiratory care with device coaching. We emphasize collaboration, realistic expectations, and stepwise adjustments based on how you feel and objective measures. Our clinicians help you weigh trade‑offs, consider alternatives, and avoid unnecessary medicines or duplications. For long‑term therapies, consistency and lab‑guided checks protect safety and effectiveness. We also discuss when in‑person evaluation is the right choice and how to access local services promptly. Finally, we make navigation easy with digital scheduling, secure messaging, and pharmacy routing. We’re committed to clarity, transparency, and follow‑through at every step of care.
Eligibility & what we check for Respiratory & Allergy
During your video visit we confirm symptoms, onset, red‑flag warnings, allergies, prior responses to treatment, and any conditions that would change the plan (for example kidney or liver concerns, pregnancy planning, or interactions with current medicines and supplements). We also align on goals—pain relief, fewer flare‑ups, improved function, or prevention—and clarify what success will look like for you. How telemedicine prescribing works
If the clinician determines a medicine is appropriate, an e‑prescription is transmitted to our pharmacy partner or your preferred local pharmacy. You’ll receive dosing guidance, timing tips (with or without food, morning vs. evening), and a plain‑English summary of warnings. For some therapies, we discuss a trial period with follow‑up to adjust dose or switch approaches. Safety, interactions, and monitoring
We screen for duplicate therapies and avoid combinations that raise risk. You’ll learn what mild effects are expected and which signs require urgent care. When lab tests meaningfully inform safety (for example thyroid levels, liver enzymes, or lipid panels), we’ll outline where to complete them and how results change decisions. Alternatives & supportive care
Medication is one tool—not the whole plan. We pair treatment with practical steps such as sleep and stress routines, hydration, nutrition, activity pacing, and condition‑specific exercises. If the first option isn’t the right fit, we map alternatives and agree on a clear next check‑in. Insurance, costs, and delivery
You can request your e‑prescription be routed to a local pharmacy that accepts your insurance, or use our delivery partner with transparent pricing and tracked shipping. Receipts are provided for HSA/FSA reimbursement where applicable. Who may not be a candidate
Certain red flags—severe or rapidly worsening symptoms, signs of an emergency, or controlled substance needs—may require in‑person evaluation. If that’s the safest pathway, we’ll explain why and help you transition without delay. Stay connected
Secure messaging lets you share updates between visits, and quick follow‑ups can be scheduled to review response, side effects, and next steps. Clear instructions and written summaries help you remember the plan.
