Since when? In Washington state it was still true 2 months ago.


I did a quick search and found that Washington State Senate Bill 5380 [0] that was signed into law in May of 2019 says that Schedule 2 substances can be prescribed electronically in 2019. There are exceptions to that and your prescriber may not participate in it.

I've been getting my adderall prescription sent electronically for the past 6 months, since I moved here.

Another post claims they've been getting it sent electronically for a few years: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23215206


It definitely depends on the state. Something to possibly check into, if you have a primary care doctor you can ask them to conference with your psychiatrist so your primary can prescribe it through normal means. I don't know Washington regulations for that, so it might not help.
