We recommend that you fill all of your prescriptions before you travel. If you must fill a prescription while you’re on the road, keep in mind that:

  • TRICARE network pharmacies are only located in the United States, Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands and the Northern Mariana Islands.
  • If you are using home delivery, you must have:
    • A prescription from a U.S. licensed provider, and
    • An APO or FPO address.
