Requires a brief online notary call. Anytimemailbox and postscanmail.com are other options mayday health has instructions for on their website linked in comments. 

Using your new mail forwarding address make an appointment + request pills online with a telehealht visit bc they can typically deliver to any address in states where they operate INCLUDING mail forwarding addresses that can forward that medicine to other states.
