Can Chiropractors Write Prescriptions? Here's What You Need to Know

women in consultation
One of the most common questions patients ask is whether chiropractors can write prescriptions. The short answer? No, chiropractors in Florida and most other states do not have the authority to write prescriptions. However, they offer something that traditional doctors don’t: effective, drug-free care.

Why Chiropractors Don’t Prescribe Medication

Despite not being able to prescribe medications, chiropractors like Dr. Steve focus on holistic, hands-on care, which aligns with their mission to promote natural healing without relying on drugs.

A Suite of Tools in Our Toolbox

Even though chiropractors don’t prescribe medication, they have many tools at their disposal to help patients manage pain and inflammation. At Preferred Chiropractic, Dr. Steve offers various modalities, including cold laser, microcurrent, ultrasound, electric stimulation, and more. “The main thing when people hurt is you’ve got to get the inflammation before it has a chance to turn into scar tissue,” he said.

These treatments are designed to accelerate healing and reduce the likelihood of long-term issues like arthritis, especially in cases of injuries such as car accidents.

A Personalized Approach to Care

As every patient is unique, we offer customized, not cookie-cutter, care. Dr. Steve always tailors his care plans to meet individual needs. “I see the car accident and disc patients 12 days in a row to make sure I give them as much anti-inflammatory care as possible, ensuring that those issues don’t persist in the future,” he said.
