Why do I have to go thru a doctor for prescriptions for lotions,creams, and sprays etc?

I have been successfully using some prescription topical for years and I still have to go to a doctor to renew the prescription. It's a revenue source for doctors and only adds to my costs

Ask the doctor to write the prescription for linger time. Most prescriptions can only be written for a certain amount of time.
