I brought my prescription medication, 10mg Lexapro, with me to Japan. I brought an additional 5 extra pills for emergencies. Well, I had to use all 5 extextras. My sister had a medical emergency and we missed our original flight. Had another flight for today that was rescheduled and just cancelled. Now we won't get to leave til tomorrow night and it will take over 24 hours to get home.

Is there any way I would be able to get a few extra pills in Japan so that I don't get side effects from not taking them? If I can prove i have a prescription, perhaps from a pharmacy or hospital? Thank you for any information you have to offer!
