REPORT

I was in a bad auto accident back in boynton beach nine months ago and dislocated my L-5 & L-6 disks and started on oxycontin 40mg twice a day and dilaudin 6mg 6x a day (30s are harder to find just go to 40) and from day one i went to a CVS in Boca Raton (where i was living BUT my license showed a Delray Beach Address over 20 miles away) i had no problem. I then moved to Fort Lauderdale, still, with the same license to my local cvs. Just handed her my new script from my new pain managment doctor (just showed him past records and he put me back on everything cause i am allergic to Tylenol and ibprofin*hint*) and my oxycontin discount card from perdua pharmaceutical. They didnt have it this was on a friday so the pharmacist said come back monday when they get it in. So because my records with cvs showed me filling oxys and dilaudin before, they ordered them for me. Asked how many i need per month and said to fill it on the same day each month and they will keep it stocked. Im a 30 year old real estate agent with purple hair lol. No judgement was made. As long as u have a valid reason and records you have taken these types of meds before you should be fine now. Things have calmed down

Here the real Beatch of the price goughing - I reported this last year with the shortage and the state does not limit pharmacy's on what they can charge - They called it price fixing and the State has no say & the pharmacy can charge whatever they want. script used to be $78. then the shortage in May and the same place wanted $320.00 - Then to add salt to the wound they refused to take insurance during the shortage because they didn't pay them as much and they are able to sell to cash patients at any price because there is NO REGULATION on medication mark-up.

I remember scotty's hardware, my dad mentioned buying stock in home depot back then lol. We have the same problem in Georgia. I have a script that is now a month old, go figure. Bit I can bankrupt myself buying them off the street. I don't think so. An addict will well and lose everything for one pull, esp how I feel tonight. Yet I haven't sold a damn thing!!

I am very sorry that you are having trouble getting your prescription filled, however, this site does not manufacture any medications, nor is it affiliated with any pharmacies, it is an information only website.
