Clonazepam Early Refill

Updated

I'm going out of town for 2 weeks and will run out of my clonazepam during the trip. I called my insurance company and they said I can refill it when I have gone through 75% of it which would be the day I leave. My insurance is Capital Blue and their preferred pharmacy is CVS. I typically go to RiteAid. Since it is always a new paper prescription (according to the law), should I just go to CVS since the insurance company (Capital Blue) told me I can have it refilled early there or will RiteAid also follow the insurance company guideline? I was also told I can't get the prescription filled in other states (I will be in MA and then Florida). I'm not sure how to handle this.

Hello Erika,

What a tricky situation!

I had a similar experience once a few years ago and how I handled it was I got in contact with my insurance company to let them know that I would be picking up my medication early, communication is key. Then I contacted my pharmacy (CVS at the time) and asked them if they could prepare my medication for pick up on the date that I was allowed to pick it up. They were happy to oblige. Things tend to go a lot smoother if you give everyone a heads up as to what is happening.

Worst case scenario you might want to delay your trip by a few hours to ensure you get your medication, or perhaps come back early to pick it up. It's never fun to have this arise, but our health should always be our top priority.

Enjoy your trip and I hope this helps.
