I love in Lady Lake, FL. I have chronic pain. I have chronic kidney disease, due to having 1 kidney. My kidney Dr. will not allow me to take Tylenol or Advil, etc. He says it could blow a hole in my 1 kidney. I take hydrocodone for this reason. I need it for severe pain. I have had back surgery & just had an injection in my lower back. All of a sudden, last month, Walmart will bot fill my prescription not will Walgreens or CVS. What is the answer? Please help. Thank you

JudyM, What reason did they give for not filling it ? If they said they were out, that may be true. Pharmacies tend to run out of Schedule II meds this time of year and earlier. Manufacturers are allocated a cerain amount of actibe ingerdients. When they have exhausted that supply, they have to wait until the new year to make any more.

If you have a script you can get them shipped from a legitimate online store.

A lot of the VA drs are reducing and cutting their pain patients off of pain meds beause of the high number of OD's. Many Vets are having to go to pain management drs in the private sector.

This is crazy, Federal Lalw allows for you getting the rest if the rx within 72 hrs. But, your state may be different, so check your state laws. The reason the pharmacists usually tell patients they can't get the difference is because there is no guarantee the meds will be in within 72 hrs.

Hi, try the purdue program. I was in several car accidents that were not my fault, all drunk drivers; I could fill the percocets; but as the years went by and i got into two more accidents; I had more injuries to my neck and back my doctor put me on stronger medication. I had alot of troubles filling my scripts until a friend told me about Purdue Patient Assistance Program; its a lifesaver; for one the medication is free; for two they mail it to me fed ex; so talk to your doctor about it and good luck!

Where I live here in Florida every pharmacy I have dealt with has told me outright they can't simply give me what they have and then make up the difference when they get the rest in. There's never been any mention of any time period (ie: 72 hours). The have all told me straight-up "We can't do that". I know they used to do it but that was years ago when I was prescribed Hydrocodone, back before the days of CVS when Eckerd Drugs was in business... now THAT was a great company to deal with in terms of pharmacy issues. Today things are very different and these pharma's simply don't care.

My son was able to get my Oxycodone 10/325 filled today, almost two weeks late. CVS actually called me to state they finally received their shipment. They stated they aren't supposed to do this but they called me only because they know how sick I am and I have always had a great relationship with them but sadly they're not supposed to help people out like that with even a simple phone call. The pharmacist told my son their pain med shipment was late because someone in their regional warehouse did something that caused all area pharmacies to be delayed. As grateful as I am for their honesty, someone's head should ROLL for this because someone's carelessness has caused all kinds of pain & suffering in my area. I also emailed the manufacturer of this pain medication, Aurobindo Pharmaceuticals (never heard of them before - I think they're Indian), and they responded with the following reply:

"Thank you for contacting Aurobindo Pharma USA. We understand and apologize for the difficulty you are experiencing in trying to obtain our products. We did experience a manufacturing delay on this product but I am happy to report that we are preparing to ship this product next week to a wholesaler near you. Below I have listed the wholesaler. We can suggest that you contact them for further pharmacy level information." - The wholesaler they referenced is AMERISOURCEBERGEN CORPORATION in Orlando, FL.

So not only did CVS's regional shipping department screw things up, the manufacturer also experienced some type of "delay" as well, which hasn't helped any of us in my area. Add to that the DEA's incessant need to dedicate all their efforts of would-be preventing pill abusers and you have a recipe for total failure of the pain med dispensing infrastructure as we know it.

I'm just relieved to finally get my GD meds after going without nearly TWO WEEKS. I'm just worried about *next month* now.

This is crazy, bad weather often delays shipments. You also need to check your state laws regarding the time frame in your state to give you the balance on a rx. Although, it is up to the pharmacist. Often the pharmacist will refuse to do it because if soemthing happens and a shipment doesn't get in on time, the patient loses the balance on the rx and had to get a new rx and teh pharmacist is blamed.

This is good information to know, in case after some time I too start experiencing problems with filling my scripts. Thanks for sharing.

I understand what you are saying,but they use that as retaliation if you don't meet their criteria or standards.If you walk in to a lot of pharmacy's here in Hawaii you are judged by your looks race or grammar,there's a rare chance of getting any pain medication prescription filled.I'm not saying anything that others here know this to be absolutely true.They judge you has soon as you give them your script,their demeanor changes right at that moment.It's so sad that they can say who gets their meds and who doesn't,and actually think that they are doing the right thing.When you ask them anything like when will you get some in or can you check with your other stores if they have it there,they will always tell you I don't know when it will be in or we can't call the other stores,I'll say can you find out when its do in or why can't you call your other locations.Every time same response Oh we don't know when it comes in plus I don't think that medication will be in.So I let him know that two of your other stores will call their other stores and check,and the manager will say will that's them not me.I just shake my head and say I'll check back later and his response will be we probably won't have any then.What I didn't tell him was that I just came from one of their other locations and they were out,but called the store that I was leaving and guest what they said yes we have a lot in stock,so I went over there in ten minutes and you heard what was said.Most of these stores will tell you that they can't order the meds you need in advance and I'll tell them that your main office said yes you can especially when you've been picking up from us the same meds for seven years,and their response will be.I'll call them later and find out.But of course they don't.So just to let you all know you can contact people who can help,like States Board of Pharmacy.if they find persons who REFUSE to fill a valid on time prescription are in essence"practicing medicine.Or you may contact ADA and file a complaint chronic pain patients which I am we meet this criteria.and let them know that you've been discriminated against.Then there is HIPAA -is for people who are trying to get their meds and the same time,having the pharmacy staff talking out loud about your private health information PHI in a manner that every one in that pharmacy can hear.That's when you can file a HIPAA complaint.So just remember we do have rights and no the pharmacy staff is not GOD.They need to be a lot more understanding when we come in to pick up our meds that we had our lives changed by some unfortunate incident that one of the things we are doing to live a better life and less painful one is to make sure we can get our prescription filled on time and not be judged looked down at but mostly NOT LIED TO about something so simple having my meds in stock
One last thing what happened to us,can one day happen to one of you pharmacy staff members or a loved one,you never know.KARMA!!

Oh goodie! I get to answer a fun one! And I've got the exact right answer straight from the horses mouth. You know, they're "doctors." Doctors of Pharmaceutical Medicine. They rarely are addressed as such. These are the people who didn't get into med school. Bad grades, low MCAT, no $$, family issues-whatever. At some point, the majority of these glorified pill counters dreamed of someday becoming an M.D. Reason 2: The DEA stays up their a$$ and you-know-what rolls downhill. My sister refers to herself as a legalized drug dealer. Look up the numbers on how many medications that are prescribed are narcotics.
I hope that doesn't sound like I am defending them; my contempt for the medical community is complete. I've never heard of such things in my state, but then again I'm so far past getting anything written in the first place all my dealings are quite innocuous.

You should be able to get it filled anywhere as long as you have the cash to pay for it.

You should tell us your location. I still use Walgreens, but they have so many restrictions--and unless your a regular, they may not fill it. Publix and certain Walmarts fills for a couple friends I know. If not, you can try any Mom/Pop--but they'll usually charge you a fortune.

Sadly doctors are being forced into bad situations, not many GP anymore, now they are being forced to become specialist, technically "pain doctor specialists" meaning they will only prescribe schedule 2 drugs. My pain doctor cannot write me blood pressure medicine, water pills, xanax, etc. I have to go to another doctor and if you get valium, elivil or xanax they think you are seeing too many doctors. I stopped taking valium because I need my pain meds. no big deal, but here is the crazy thing, they will not write me xanax or valium because of the street connection with pain meds and certain benzos.. Yet they will write me restoril (temazepam) which is a benzodiazepine to sleep but not valium or xanax, not that I care, they all work...

Drs can write rxs for any Med they want to. But it is up to each individual drs what rxs they write. Some drs will write rxs for pain meds and Valium and elavil and some won't. It also depends on why you need the Med. If you need elavil for nerve pain or Valium for muscle spasams that is one thing. But if you need elavil for depression and Valium for anxiety, that isn't his field.
