Just when you think your pharmacy can't get dumber

I had refills on my imitrex vials, but had to wait 3 days for my Dr. to authorize the syringes. I kept thinking to myself, "Shouldn't the syringes COME WITH THE VIALS?"
I just called the pharmacy and they said the Dr approved them today. I waited for a call-back, as WALGREENS Says they will call as soon as your prescript is ready.
I guess when I go back to the Doc the 26, I'll have to ask him for re-fills on the syringes, to go along with the refills for the Imitrex. Sheesh!
Peace,
Carl D

Sympathy Carl! 
When I got my first 02 tank, it didn't come with a mask and tube and they said I couldn't have one without a prescription. Fat lot of good that is!

Avoiding common sense is just another way of getting your money Carl..........The same thing happens here, gotta have an RX for both to get em both.

I get our scripts at Walmart (convienent since I practicaly live there).....they kept runnin outa imitrex for Brad......course at first we had the battle to git more then 9 a month that I found out goes on by the script month to month. But they mail us the ones they owe us soon as they come in.....well considerin it can take 10 days for a bill to reach my town 7 miles away that is for sum reason not too comforting ! Do those ligitamate mail order drug companies (not the rip off online types.....these are the ones that send you stuff to your house and work with your insurence co and doc's scripts of so many months at once to do it)....do they let you recieve several months worth of imitrex in one order I wonder like they do other meds ? It's where your doc has to write out the script for at least 3 to 6 months WORTH and the drug company sends it all to you at once and is an approved co with your insurence co. I used to git several months worth of my scripts for a fraction of the cost......but wonder if they do that with trex ?? Couldn't believe the cheap price I got for so much. Did it with that gawd aweful Paxil (paxil bad bad bad for me) and that was around $ 70.00 a script and got 3 to 6 months worth at once with docs script to do so and insurence approval for about 1/4 th the normal price total of each bottles worth. (how can they do that anyhow ?) Jus a thought.......that'd be a great deal if ya could get it that way and cheap and so much to last thru your cycle. I was always afraid the package would get ripped off cuz you could hear PILLS in it......and figure some drug freak mite notice and steal it or find out you had stuff deliverd that way and grab it. Pam that has learn'd not to trust a sole anyhow

Geesh...last yearI got script for trex and the pharmacy didn't have the prefilled so I asked if they had the vials, sure they had the vials an the needles to go with them. So they charged me almost three times the amount...I had all my paper work in order and just got a call from em sayin I owed em almost a grand...now were do they get off chargin so much as it is, and the paper work my gosh, I see a bunch of red tape here and BS on their part...Jerks...then again they are in training. More BS to deal with as if not enough as it is. Oh well...
