I'm always so concerned that Joan gets her medicine each that I overlooked one of mine was empty. I just sent an email to the doctor tonight and usually the code for a prescription is sent to me in the morning.
In Poland, a doctor writes a prescription into the national health care system in the computer and a 4 digit code is assigned to it. Then, you take that code to the Apteka(pharmacy) and they look into the system to see what the medicine is. It usually works very smoothly and saves a visit to the doctor.

WASHINGTON, July
14 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump on Monday announced a toughened
stance against Russia for its war in Ukraine, promising a fresh wave
of missiles and other weaponry for Ukraine and giving Moscow 50 days
to reach a ceasefire or face sanctions.
“I don't want to say he's an assassin, but he's a tough guy," Trump said, noting that several of his predecessors had also become disillusioned with Putin.
The decision by Trump to send arms to Ukraine represented a turning point for the Republican president, who has spent the early months of his term trying to coax Putin into a ceasefire agreement, only to be turned down every time.
In the Oval Office at an announcement with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, Trump told reporters he had become deeply frustrated with Russian President Vladimir Putin. He said Putin is pleasant to speak with on the phone but then turns around and unleashes withering bombing raids on Ukraine.
Under the deal, Trump said the U.S. will supply weapons that will be paid for by NATO countries. Rutte said massive numbers of weapons would be sent, including missiles, as part of a first wave of equipment.
Trump said the "top of the line" equipment, including Patriot missile systems and batteries, would be arriving very soon.
Rutte said Germany, Finland, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, the Netherlands and Canada all want to be a part of rearming Ukraine.
"They all want to be part of this. And this is only the first wave. There will be more. So what we will do is work through the NATO systems to make sure that we know what Ukrainians need to make packages," he said.
