What medication can you not prescribe?

It depends on the state you are seeking care with a naturopathic doctor. For example, where I received my training in Oregon we can refill all your prescriptions including Ativan. Where I am currently located in Minnesota we cannot prescribe any medications at this time. You would need your primary care doctor to do that for you. I hope this clears things up for you.

Thank you for your interest in naturopathic medicine. There are many natural alternatives that are similar to ativan that you might try when working with a naturopathic doctor, but this is not the case all the time. Medications are necessary for many patients and I understand your need.
