How to Calculate a 90-Day Prescription Refill Date
It is quite easy to calculate your next 90-day prescription refill date. This can be done in 3 simple steps.
- Write down the date when you take the first dose from your new 90-day supply. This will serve as the starting point for calculating your refill date.
- Count forward 89 days from the date of your first dose. This 89th day will be the date when you need to take the final dose from your current 90-day supply.
- Add one day to the date of your final scheduled dose to determine the start of your next 90-day refill period. For example, if your last dose from the initial 90-day supply is September 12th, then September 13th marks the beginning of your next eligible 90-day refill period.
These two examples help illustrate the calculation:
Example 1:
- You start a new 90-day supply of medication on January 1st.
- Counting forward 89 days from January 1st, your final dose from this supply will be on March 30th.
- Add one day to March 30th, and you can refill your next 90-day supply on March 31st.
Example 2:
- You begin a new 90-day supply of medication on May 15th.
- Counting forward 89 days from May 15th, your final dose from this supply will be on August 12th.
- Add one day to August 12th, and you can refill your next 90-day supply on August 13th.
Bear in mind that each dispensed 90-day prescription supply is intended to provide a 90-day supply of medication. The final dose date signals the end of the 90-day cycle, and the very next day starts the clock for the following 90-day window when you can receive your next 90-day refill.
