Does PRN and indefinite refills mean the same thing?

For medications, PRN means "take as needed". I've never seen any prescription written as "indefinite refills", and it would not be within medical standards to write a prescription that way. However, a prescription may have continuous refills, usually up to 12 months (1 year) BUT this is only on certain classifications of prescription medications and typically the refill line has a designation (a number is placed there to indicate how many refills). But, again, a prescription is never written with "continuous refills" on the prescription paper.


What does prn mean for next appointment?

Prn usually means "as needed". When a medicine prescription indicates prn it means that it can be taken as needed within the prescription instructions. A next appointment prn would mean "we will meet again as needed, or when needed".
