I have always wondered how those who dont need them always have them for sale? How on earth do they get the scripts for them? Legit patients cant get them as easy as sheisters do!

You need to check with your insurance company. Insurance companies don't all cover the same meds or for the same reasons. The pharmacy can't charge the insurance company if they don't cover it or if they don't cover it for the reason your prescription states you're taking it.

I have no idea who he will see....if the oxycontin mess up stomach, suck on them like a cough drop. It will more like a oxycodone drip and provide relief without cramps, diarrhea, and other tummy issues.

I understand exactly what your mother has gone through in trying to fill her prescription. I take Oxycodone 15 milligrams now. My doctor started me on the 10mg. When I originally got the 10mg filled it took me 5 days to find a pharmacy that would fill, just a 10mg percocet. The Walgreens finally filled those. I was told to make sure you go to a pharmacy, near your home address, that's listed on your prescription or drivers license. They are most likely to fill if you gio to a pharmacy as close to your home as possible. But when I was increased to the 15mg. The Walgreens I had been using did not carry the 15mg. So the search was on again.
This time it took me 7 days after going to every pharmacy within a 60 mile radius.
Finally I filled at Walmart. Not Walgreens. It is truly aggravating, frustrating and a complete nightmare to go through this to fill a valid prescription, for valid reasons.
But unfortunately in the state of florida, we are all dealing with it now that the DEA has cut the supply. And that's exactly what the problem is. Along with the Pharmacist, and how they operate these days. I hope things get easier for your mother, and hope that some of this information will help in the future for you.
Maybe if she tries a Walmart near your home, she will have better luck. Or even one near her doctors office. They get their supply once a week, on Fridays, and I understand they all go by the same policy, first come first serve basis, so they are not allocated to certain patients, which should also make it easier to fill. Good Luck.

How do we call your Dr.? Where is he located? How do you fill a script you drive 3-hours to get? Don't you have to be in the same county?

You must be ref. to Publix in G.G.Sarasota? Family has been filling scripts for 27+ years at Publix, myself over 22 years and the new B**** Pharmacist there has "copped" a real attitude and No, she has refused to fill any scripts for 30mg oxycodone within the past 3 months! AND Hundreds, I mean 100's of thousand of $$$ later for all family meds spent at Publix!!! DISGUSTING!!! Past Friday I, literally, drove to 10 different pharmacies and no luck. Regional pharmacy manager was no help saying he would speak to her about her rudeness - big deal.

I understand that FL Gov. Scott is behind all of our med shortages - he states he is "going to clean up Florida" - This is from the man who bilked Medicare out of 600 million dollars!!! (Why he isn't in jail let alone FL voted for this thief??) In any event, believe that all us who legitimately require this medication, MUST lean on our pain management Doctors to supply us! They "say" there is nothing they can do...they'll find a solution once it effects their pocket book when patients say "screw it". The power of the AMA combined with the power of the pharma companies CAN put an end to any shortages which exist. It's up to ALL patients who cannot obtain their meds to really make some noise, starting with their Docs. I have so many medical injuries, mostly spinal, from being rear-ended by a tow truck and 18 wheel chassis that on a "good" day with meds I have problems getting in and out of the car 3-4 times let alone driving to 10 pharmacies. Seriously, people need to really get firm with their doctors, withdrawal all scripts from pharmacies that treat you like publix is doing, vote for a governor who will support patient rights, etc...

I'm sorry that I have no solution to where one can get these meds in the Sarasota-Bradenton area...supposedly, there are "monthly allotments"; however, Friday was the 1st of the month and 10/10 pharmas (everywhere from CostCo to Walmart) had ZERO and my Dad had heard on the news - ABC - Friday night that oxycodone along with 2 other meds were being recalled... could not find in newspaper nor the internet. Urge your family and friends to help by making some "noise". It sucks living 24/7 in pain with the only mediocre relief provided by some meds being deprived to those who require it in order to function. Can u imagine in the government put an allotment on Diabetic or Cardiac medication???

What gets me, is there are people out there who need pain medication just to live a normal life. I am on 2 different pain meds, oxycodone 30mg 4x a day and oxymorphone 15mg 3x a day. I have a disease called Charcot disease, where it is treatable through pain management, then eventually amputation. I've already lost my right leg due to this disease, my left foot is in stage 3 of Charcot then when time hits, I will lose that limb too. Charcot is where the bones in your feet start breaking apart, arch collapse, ankles shatter, then joints get infected, it is very painful and I refuse to be in pain. Along with phantom pain. I am fighting disability now, and have to pay cash for all my meds. I really have no problem getting my oxycodone filled, but my oxymorphone is a different story. Especially Walgreen's, they treat me like a pill junkie because of medications I am on. I was refused one time at a Walgreens Pharmacy in TN to fill my oxycodone because I had no insurance, and that was when I got released from hospital after my amputation, and pharmacist seen I had lost my limb and knew why I was prescribed that. So I use Rite Aid. Now my oxymorphone er is so hard to get filled cause a lot of doctors prescribe them to patients that really don't need them. So I have to use Walgreens Pharmacy in another county, and I worry each month how they are gonna treat me, cause they are usually rude and judge me. Last month, they told me they were out of stock, and this was the first time in 9 months they told me they were out, luckily I was able to find a pharmacy that had in stock and seen my conditions and codes for reason I am prescribed, only thing is it cost me $507 to get filled. So this month I go to the same Walgreens Pharmacy I go to each month, they looked at script then looked at me and told me they were out. Now I asked to speak to pharmacist and asked her for help in finding another Walgreens Pharmacy that would have in stock cause no pharmacy will tell a customer if they have this medication in stock.

The lady looked at me and said "no I am not calling no where" I explained to her, that I follow their good faith policy, and policy on this medication, that states on Walgreens website "DO NOT SUDDENLY STOP TAKING THIS MEDICATION, OBTAIN A REFILL 2 DAYS BEFORE RUNNING OUT". I told her I already miss my morning dose, because Walgreens will not fill it on the 29th day like most pharmacies do. So I asked her what am I suppose to do? She said not her problem and told me to leave. I was polite with her, and for her to treat me like that, I explained to her, that I am no junkie and told her that I don't want to be on pain meds for life, but I will be on this till I have my amputation. As a customer, u shouldn't have to worry how u going to be treated when u take your pain script in to get filled. So I left, and I called my doctor, she called up there, and pharmacist that was there told my Dr that they had it in stock, because when I was put on this medication, my Dr had me locked in that certain Walgreens for this medication so I wouldn't have trouble finding a pharmacy. My Dr was so upset and told the pharmacist that was there what I was told, the pharmacist that told me to leave had just got off work and 2nd shift pharmacist was there. So he told my Dr to have me come back up there and he will fill it. I live almost an hour away. So for pharmacist who say they try to help, whatever, I was judged. When I went back he could tell I was upset, but I didn't lose my temper, I said I was a victim of slander. And these pharmacist only knew how u feel when u hurt from pain, of course I had a little WD, but I take as directed, and have never tried to get filled early, and I DON'T like to pharmacy hunt. So I called the Rite Aid pharmacy I use for my other medications and they agreed they will order my oxymorphone for me each month so I won't be treated like I was at Walgreens. And filling a complaint against Walgreens does no good, cause they got so many complaints on them. All this comes down too is, it is hard for people who are in pain to get their meds because of those who go to pill mills for a high, hate me if ya want...

I live in Port St Lucie, FL and have been prescribed Oxycontin 60mg for a couple years now and every month it's a crap-shoot whether or not the pharmacy will have them. I probably have maybe another two or three years to live (if that) and anyone who has seen me can tell I'm in great pain and have severe neurological problems (I also have Parkinson's Disease that is in rapid decline). Needless to say my pharmacy has told me (CVS) they make every effort to keep this pain med in stock for me very month and honestly speaking, they normally DO have it in stock. They are very nice to me because I am always pleasant with them and they can see I am a legitimate pain medication user and probably don't have long to live as it is but that's where the nice part of this story ends.

When they don't have the meds in stock, like TODAY, they are very apologetic but in the end you are forced to drive aimlessly around the tri-county area looking for DRUGS, which really makes you feel like you've been completely forgotten as a patient and a human being. I have not been able to drive a few years now because Parkinson's has robbed me of many normal abilities. Therefore I must rely on family to help me do things like this.

As I write this, my wife is driving around trying to find a pharmacy that has my medication but it wasn't until it happened to me that I saw just how screwed up the laws are for legitimate pain med users like myself. For instance, my wife found a local Walgreens that actually had the meds in stock but they wouldn't fill it because it's Sunday and my doctors office is closed. Just where did THIS come from? It used to be is you had a legitimate Rx they would fill the damn thing and that was that. Ironically my regular pharmacy, CVS, actually had *some* of my Rx in stock, just not the whole thing but it seems some lawmaker made a law that now say's, regarding pain meds, if you get a "partial fill" of your Rx you can't just simply pick up the rest when the pharmacy gets more yet you CAN still do this for other non-pain meds. Again, where the hell did THIS come from and *why* would they even adopt such a policy? It's as if lawmakers said to each other, "What can we come up with to make pain medication prescriptions as difficult a process as possible so it targets both the drug seekers AND legitimate users alike", and THIS is what they came up with, but *WHY*? Apparently these clowns decided to compromise all legit pain patients out there all for the sake of catching SOME illegal drug users. It wasn't until I began to have to go from pharmacy to pharmacy to PHARMACY that I realized these pharmacists and pharma-techs were all looking at me like I'm a dirty drug seeker or something. The funny thing is that's exactly what we are now and THEY turned us into it. Only difference is we have a legitimate need for our medication(s) but strangely this process of trying to catch and prevent the "bad guys" from having these meds have made even legit users go without our much-needed medicine. By the way, my wife just texted me to say she finally found a CVS pharmacy that has my meds and they're now filling it but sadly it's taken her literally HOURS of aimlessly driving around a THREE-COUNTY area! She had to visit nearly twenty pharmacies consisting of CVS and Walgreens, and lemme tell you, when it comes to pain med dispensing Walgreens is THE absolute WORST pharmacy on the planet.

The last time CVS couldn't fill my Rx because of low stock I went across the street to Walgreens and some twenty-something year old pharmacist boy outright told me "I wouldn't with good conscience fill this Rx". When I asked him to clarify this he refused to say anything further and just stated he wouldn't fill it - that's all he would say and that was that. Bear in mind I have Parkinson's Disease and have a right hand tremor, slurred speech and walk/shuffle using a cane so I'm not exactly sure how this kid determined it was in his best interests to refuse a prescription from a well-known, legit doctors office all of ONE mile away. I wrote a letter to Walgreen's headquarters and sent it certified mail and do you know what I got in response? N-O-T-H-I-N-G. Clearly Walgreens could care less if their pharmacists don't fill even legitimate prescriptions because if you complain or express concern as to why a pain Rx wasn't filled then as far as they're concerned you're just a drug seeking addict. Seems Walgreens has taken the position that their pharmacists can refuse to fill any and all Rx's with absolute impunity and there isn't a damn thing we can do about it because even Walgreens home office doesn't care how you get treated and what their pharmacists say to you. They can and DO treat people like dirt every day and Walgreens simply does-not-care. End of story.

I just don't get it. For the life of me I don't understand how this country can ignore legitimate pain sufferers all so they can prevent some pill addicts from getting the meds WE'RE suppose to be getting. I mean, that's great and all they're trying to keep pills out of the wrong hands but this effort is wreaking havoc on real pain patients, and it's crystal clear they could absolutely CARE LESS about us.... just so long as they bag a few addicts in the process is all that really matters to these i****s. How can these clowns justify making the process of getting a legitimate prescription filled SO difficult merely because *some* people abuse them? All the focus seems to focus on helping law-breakers with very little directed at those of us who actually NEED these medications.

Very sorry for my ultra-long post but this issue REALLY pisses me off and I have had to go without medication in the past just because lawmakers cater to law-breakers when it should be the other way around

Walgreens is a joke. I have to go to a Walgreens on the other side of town because the one across the street from me has a limit on the amount they will feel. Thankfully, the pharmacist at this one doesn't enforce the 5 mile limit restriction on me. Not only does each store have a different policy, every pharmacist has a different policy.

The worst seems to be these young pharmacist fresh out of school who must be getting brainwashed to look at every patient skeptically as a drug dealer. Every time my regular pharmacist is gone one of these young fill-ins has an excuse for why s/he can't fill it right now. People need to start boycotting Walgreens for all their shopping needs until they get their act together.

I just don't get it. I was supposed to fill my Oxycodone 10/325 prescription 7 days ago but nobody has them in stock, or, they have them but not the entire amount I need. I can agree to have them fill what they have but you can't just come back later on and pick up the rest when they get them in because some genius decided to change things and now you can no longer do that, which means you will forfeit the remainder if you choose to do this, yet other non-pain medications are NOT this way.

Again, I just don't get it. I have a legit doctor with a legit Rx and I go to a legit pharmacy yet they still treat you like a dirtbag druggie.

I'm in so much pain now but can't fill my legit Rx because nobody has Oxycodone in my area? NOBODY? And who the hell establishes these whacky rules and why does it negatively affect legitimate pain sufferers? I swear, I just don't get it. I really don't.

I'm in such pain right now and to make matters worse I'm also in withdrawal so it's twice as bad. I just don't think I can hang on much longer and I know what I may have to do to stop the pain but it isn't pretty but at this point I just don't know that I have a choice anymore. I really don't want to be alive anymore if THIS is how I'm gonna be treated from hereon. I'm so GD tired of this and I've just about given up. I'll give it another few days but I just can't go on like this and I've just about made my mind up at this point what I have to do.

I normally fill all my Rx's at my local CVS because they're closest to my house but on occasion if they don't have my medication in stock I'm forced to take it elsewhere and I also ran into the "We won't fill your Rx for no reason whatsoever" scenario. Walgreens seems to be the worst for this issue and they gave me no reason whatsoever as to why they wouldn't fill my Rx. The pharmacist was this twenty-something kid who treated me like sh** the moment I presented my Rx to him - why he acted this way towards me I couldn't say but those are the facts, and it wasn't because I acted mean, angry, upset, or looked weird (whatever that may mean), nor was it because I said or did anything that would otherwise cause such a response. I was pleasant and alert and there was no reason for anyone to refuse service in this scenario yet the pharmacist still chose to act like an ahole towards me and treat me like dirt all while refusing to fill me Rx. Go figure . . .

It's beyond me why some of these pharmacists treat legitimate Rx holders so poorly and/or disrespectfully but they not only do it, they get away with it with absolutely NO accountability whatsoever, as the default assumption is if you happen to have a pain med Rx refusal then it must be that you're either an addict, or were rude to the pharmacist, or God knows what else it could be. Either way if they refuse to fill your Rx the company will always, Always, ALWAYS side with the pharmacy and will by default look at you like YOU are the problem. My incident was a total mystery and I've never understood why this kid treated me like dirt but they seem to give these pharmacists carte-blanch in terms of who they want or don't want to provide service to, and if they magically decide they don't want to fill your Rx they not only won't fill it, but also won't even give you a reason and will then inform you to "leave the store". I've never been treated so poorly as I was at Walgreens pharmacy, and I've NEVER had trouble at any store for any reason at *ANY* time in my life until the encounter at Walgreens with my Rx. They wouldn't fill it and wouldn't even tell me why, and when I inquired why I was promptly told to leave the store because they "couldn't help me". That was the freakiest thing ever but they do it and get away with it every DAY.

I know it's a major pain, seems like no pharmacy wants to fill anymore pain meds. The big companies like CVS and Walgreens are the worst, I avoid these places like the plague and go to smaller places, but then again I have no insurance so I pay cash. The best bet is to go mail order out of the state of Fla. Once you get it down you will get your meds on time.. Also, check out your local news, WESH in Orlando has done reports on pharmacies who will not fill meds for pain patients, contact your local news, write your local newspaper and state reps of both Houses. Complaining to CVS or walgreens will not help, they don't care, they have their own policies about filing pain meds.
I do not have these problems because I do not have insurance for my doctor or meds..

I am 59 years old.I broke my back,my neck,broke my jaw,I am fused together I have ososteoporosis. I was on roxycodone for 13 years that was the only thing that helped my pain. I got tired of trying to get my scripts filled so I started methadone. I am still suffering a lot but now I am having trouble even getting that filled. I had the same pharmacies for 7 years and they got greedy just like so many of them, they didn't want to fill insurance, but if you could pay 2500.00 to 3500.00 cash they would fill them. The chain pharmacies they look at you and if they don't like your looks they won't fill them. I have osteoporosis and I am missing a lot of my jaw bone I don't have teeth so they automatically think I am a junkie,it do sent matter how I lost my teeth,it is what they see. Pharmacies have to much power. They need to be held responsable. Thank you jerry

I have hit it here on the Gulf Coast several times were the Pharmacies were out of any kind of OxyContin or Norco or whatever - had to drive to several Pharmacies to get it filled - and it happens more and more - I do not understand the shortage or the rules that seem to govern the Doctors now that may prescribe it - I can get it free through a Mail Order Pharmacy but that does not work well when they count out the exact days before you come back to get a new script - and they are never refillable - it has become a terrible worry and very frustrating to have to find a way to go to the Doctor every month and then find a Pharmacy - and all that only makes us suffer - the ones that are in constant pain - somehow on the streets there is no shortage and drug trafficking is well and keeps on going - so why all the restriction on Doctors that put you through the ringer with u/a's and make you feel like an Addict to even prescribe something for chronic pain? Something is not well with the current system.
