Nurse Practitioner
lola asked:


Will she not ask a doctor to give me real medicine? I want medication that will help my lower back. I don’t want Tylenol. How should I approach the nurse practitioner? I also am wanting xanex for anxiety, is that out also? How can I convince her I really need xanex?

Relax, Nurse practioners can prescribed you what you need. They are supervised by a Physician who counter signs their orders for narcotics and such. Talk to her about your anxiety, she may not give you Xanax as there are alot better anti-anxiety drugs on the market.

You should talk to the nurse as you would a doctor. He/She can prescribe medication and should be quite experienced.

Nurse practitioners can give you a prescription that is better than normal tylenol. You should just ask her for a different prescription. I go to a small clinic all the time that is run by nurse practitioners
