Download the Medication History

Note: Medication History is not guaranteed for all clients. Patients without insurance, medications paid by cash, or patients who have requested their medical history NOT be exposed to providers can cause the medication history check to be completed successfully but return NO DATA.

You can download the medication history in two ways, both from the Prescription tab on the client profile:

1. Click the Medication Download button. This gives you a quick glimpse into their medication history. Note: This is a read-only view. 

2. Click the Manage Prescriptions button. Download and view the history at the bottom of the popup. 

From this list, you can also click the  green arrow on the right to add to the current medication list and have it display in PracticeQ:
