Can ND s supervise or assist me with my current medications or help me to make decisions on other possible prescriptions?
Arizona has the widest scope of prescribing rights for naturopathic physicians in the nation. Our physicians are trained extensively in pharmacology, botanical medicine, homeopathy, Chinese medicine and their interactions and side effects. Naturopathic physicians have the same prescribing rights as allopathic physicians, except for narcotics. Therefore, NDs are able to provide patients continuing prescriptions for current health conditions or illnesses.
