Our Website provides an online form that patients may use to request prescription refills. The form is provided using third-party technology that processes information on our behalf.
Information submitted through the refill form is used for purposes related to the refill request and associated pharmacy services. Access to submitted refill information is restricted to authorized pharmacy personnel and authorized service providers as appropriate.
Submitting a refill request does not guarantee that a prescription can or will be refilled. Refill requests remain subject to applicable prescription requirements, prescriber authorization when necessary, pharmacy review, and applicable law.

Shelton Compounding Pharmacy may offer patients the option to receive SMS/text-message notifications related to pharmacy services. These communications are intended for informational and patient-service purposes, such as:
- Prescription refill reminders
- Prescription-ready or order-status notifications
- Other pharmacy-service notifications requested or authorized by the patient
We do not use our patient SMS notification program to send marketing or promotional messages.
Participation in SMS messaging is voluntary. We obtain consent before enrolling a patient in SMS notifications, and patients may choose not to receive text messages and use other available methods of communication with the pharmacy.
Message frequency may vary. Message and data rates may apply depending on your wireless carrier and service plan.
You may withdraw your consent to receive SMS messages at any time by replying STOP to a message or by contacting Shelton Compounding Pharmacy. Withdrawing consent to text messaging does not affect your ability to receive pharmacy services.
We may use third-party service providers and telecommunications providers to transmit messages on our behalf. Mobile telephone numbers are used only as necessary to provide authorized communications and related services.
We do not sell, rent, or share mobile telephone numbers, SMS opt-in information, or text-messaging consent with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes. SMS opt-in data and consent will not be sold or transferred to third parties for their own use.
Records relating to SMS consent, communication preferences, and opt-out requests may be maintained as necessary to administer the messaging program and document compliance with applicable requirements.
