If you need an online service to take over psychiatric prescriptions, the best fit in your results is Talkiatry or LiveHealth Online for ongoing medication management with licensed psychiatrists. Talkiatry is described as a large U.S. psychiatric practice offering evaluations, follow-up visits, and medication management, while LiveHealth Online says its psychiatrists can prescribe many non-controlled mental health medications and provide ongoing care.[17][20]
A few practical options:
- Talkiatry — strong choice for ongoing psychiatry and medication management; it uses board-certified psychiatrists and is specifically described as offering follow-up visits and prescription management.[17]
- LiveHealth Online — good if you need a service that can continue many psychiatric medications and provide follow-up care, though it says it cannot prescribe controlled substances.[20]
- Doctor On Demand — can review prescriptions and send refills to a pharmacy, and it lists psychiatry visits for medication-related care.[11]
- FasPsych — says its psychiatrists can prescribe controlled substances, including Schedule II, but only after evaluation and in compliance with state and federal rules.[1]
- BetterHelp / UpLift psychiatry — offers online psychiatry and medication management, with licensed psychiatric providers who can evaluate and prescribe when clinically appropriate.[19]
What matters most is whether you need:
- routine antidepressant or anxiety medication: many telepsychiatry services can handle this[17][19][20]
- controlled substances like some ADHD medications: availability is more limited, and some services cannot prescribe them[1][20]
One important limitation: most online services do not automatically “take over” prescriptions from a retired psychiatrist without a new evaluation and transfer of records; they usually require an intake visit first.[17][19]
If you want, I can narrow this down to the best service for your state, insurance, or whether your medication is a controlled substance.
