Yes, urinary catheters require a prescription. This includes the main types of catheters, such as intermittent catheters, Foley catheters, and external catheters.
Because catheters are prescription items, suppliers typically require confirmation that they are being used under medical guidance before purchase. Some related catheter supplies, such as lubricating jelly, leg bags, and tubing, may not require a prescription.
