In order to comply with FDA regulations SleepRestfully.com requires a prescription from a licensed physician to provide you with a CPAP/BiLevel Machine, Oxygen Concentrator, CPAP/BiPAP Mask, CPAP/BiPAP Humidifier, respiratory equipment and certain other medical supplies. You may fax your prescription toll free to (800) 540-5078 or if you are outside the United States to (281) 501-7969; upload a copy from the "Thank You" page after you place your order or e-mail a scanned copy to sales@sleeprestfully.com.

Your prescription should have the physician's information and signature, the type of machine you need (CPAP, Auto CPAP, BiLevel, oxygen concentrator, etc.), and the pressure at which the machine is to be set if applicable. Once we have a prescription on file you will be able to place future orders without resubmitting a new prescription. Your original prescription is acceptable regardless of the date it was written.

If you do not have a written prescription we will be happy to contact your prescribing physician to obtain one on your behalf. In this case please provide us the patient's full name, date of birth, physician's name, address, phone number and fax number on the customer checkout form in the "Additional Information" area or e-mail this information to us at sales@sleeprestfully .com . No merchandise requiring a physician's prescription will be shipped prior to Sleep Restfully, Inc. obtaining one.
