Title: Triptan Limitation
Post by BstnEagles on Apr 13^th, 2004, 2:09am

I think there may be a way to beat the system. The Rx is limited to 6 sprays per unit. I get 6 Zomigs and 6 Imitrex a month. I was talking to my pharmacsist today at CVS and he said that he fills them as a six day supply he told me to get alot of refills and come back in six days. He said he cold probably just treat it as a refill every six days. I dunno if that would work. Also I think we should launch a complain against BCBS-MA. Look at what I found out about BCBS-FL

and the follow up

What does it say on the BCBSMA site? It is all documented out there.
For carriers limitations, your doctor can request a waiver. How did that work out? Must follow the process before one speaks of rebellion.

Why not also get a script for some injectable vials and tablets as suggested in your prior thread? Easier than marching up an down the sidewalk in front of the BCBSMA building with a 'Gimme more Imitrex Nasal' sign on a rainy April morning, imo.
