Pharmacies saying they are “OUT” is what many of the Pharmacies are telling people even if they can fill a prescription. They are tired of being robbed by addicts. I went to a Pharmacy in Florida that I had known and done business with for over 20 years for various prescriptions. One month when I went to fill my hydrocodone prescription I was told by the tech that they were out. I was called by the Pharmacist who I have known for along time and they told me to come back later that day and they would fill my prescription. I was told at that time that EVERY person that was not known to the individual taking the prescription for any pain medicine was told they were “out” because of the high rate of robberies. I was told that many times someone would come in and just ask if the Pharmacy could fill the prescription because they were going to get a script later that day or tomorrow. A couple of hours later another person would come in and rob them. I guess they found a pattern and just told anyone that asked that they were “out”. If a Pharmacy is truly out that could mean that they were at their limit for Schedule 2 pain meds. MOST Pharmacies, even if you are not known to them, will call the prescribing Doctor and ask if the script is legitimate and then fill it or at least order the pain medications to fill it with a turnaround of 3 to 4 days. Or they may even make a call to one of their other Pharmacies and see if they can fill it and send you there. It is inconvenient but that unfortunately is the climate we live in now.

Hi there. I'm in Australia and been on Oxycodone for 15 years. We don't have the problems you seem to have over there getting them. A few years ago they changed the formula so you couldn't abuse it and do whatever but they changed back. The best stuff I ever had was a liquid (opium based) but can't get it now, but I know all the drs over here are stopping the oxy and giving out other s***. It looks like we're following you guys.

Re: PATRICIA (# 2)

Walmart will not fill an oxycodone script unless there is an immediate acute situation such as recent surgery. They told me ongoing conditions must be dealt with by therapy, OTC meds such as Aleve, ibuprophen, etc. No longer do they fill for chronic ongoing painful conditions. My doc said they have used a model set by a Walmart in Ohio, that has the most stringent policy in the US. All Walmarts have adopted this policy. They will only fill oxycodone if there appears to be a taper going on, and then only for a few months. Then you're on your own. Had to change pharmacy to get my script filled. Even with a document from doctors office with list of ongoing painful diagnoses. So yes...they will and do reject legitimate properly written, within county, scripts. But then, that just may be Walmart, but I believe it is a more widespread effort to wean all of us, pain in the butt, chronic pain sufferers off the very meds that allow us to enjoy a level of functionality we would not have without the meds.

Is there a person like you in California?

I have been in pain management for over 5 years and was cut off with no consultation, no weaning, no alternate medication to mitigate pain or withdrawal symptoms. When I asked my Dr. if he knew what withdrawal symptoms were like he said yes, when I asked him if he remembered that he also treats me for high blood pressure and BP is one of the 1st things withdrawals will affect, he said nothing, and when I asked him if he would prescribe me suboxone, he said no.

Re: Comments (# 4)

I am moving to Royal Palm Florida. I have had chronic back pain and OA of my joints. I am worried I won't be able to get a script for oxycodone and Xanax for anxiety. Can u help me find a doctor or pain clinic and if I do get the scripts where do I fill? I have Medicare and Medicaid. Any help is appreciated.

Re: Comments (# 3)

The FDA needs to come out and tell what changes have been made to these pain meds people are taking (list it on the bottle). It's like the FDA doesn't have to play by the rules and post these changes and the people taking them don't need to know what they are taking. The FDA is allowing Mallinckrodt to make a drug inferior to the name brand that is hurting people and cant make them take it off the market because Mallinckrodt filed a lawsuit. The FDA is not working for the people but working for the big pharm. co.

Re: Polly 110 (# 972)

That's what they did to me. I moved all my meds to another pharmacy and all of a sudden they got them for me. The others have fillers in them causing migraines and horrible heartburn. I put kvk brand only or I don't fill them with them. I have no problems anymore. They are more expensive is why they are doing it. Good luck...

Re: The DEA is the New Hitler (# 959)

Hi guys, I'm from Australia and I follow your posts regularly as I am a fellow chronic pain sufferer. Its astonishing what is hapening in the USA with the whole opioid war. I do understand why the government needs to better regulate certain aspects of opioid prescribing. But treating every patient like a drug seeker is just ridiculous. Its a one size fits all system that ignores personal circumstances. Why cant there be a framework for approving opioid therapy for patients that truly require it. Rather than forcing doctors to treat every patient the same and reduce or cut out meds irrespective of their condition or length of time on pain meds. Doctors are trained to make such decisions, so let them. Have a system whereby another doctor must approve/agree with the first doctor's diagnosis to avoid innapropriate prescribing and to weed out dodgy people. How can it be legal or even ethical for a patient to have their pain meds reduced/stopped when they have serious health issues that are proven and documented and cannot be disputed? Isnt that a breach of patient rights? Human rights? Medical negligence? I agree the system needed reforming to weed out dodgy doctors and pill mills, and innapropriate prescribing practices, but to punish every patient irrespective of their circumstance just doesnt seem fair or reasonable in a democratic society.

The DEA and Pam Bondi are a lot of the reason why people are turning to illicit drugs. They're easier to obtain and cheaper.

First of all, I will tell you why they will not fill 180 30 mg oxycodone. That is too many. By law, you have to be on a long-term and a short-term medicine. You are on a point system now and each pill adds up to so many points but the funny thing is is that it metabolizes into a morphine point which doesn't compare to oxycodone! This country has gone nuts with this war against oxycodone. It's mostly the young people that are sticking a needle in their arm and are overdosing. It's horrific and disgusting for people who are in true pain. Everyone has been cut to 84 a month and as I said you should have a long-term medicine like morphine, Oxycontin, Etc - which the prices are outrageous! They are doing this to shut down the pain management doctors. They have caused a pandemic (not an epidemic) for illicit drug use and people are dying left and right because Lord knows what is in the drug! I know that young kids are in pain too but I don't believe these kids need the amount of meds that they are being prescribed. I used to get 240 oxycodone 30mg a month along with 56 40mg oxycontin and I am now cut to 84 30mg oxycodone a month and one 80mg oxycontin a month. I have no lower spine. Every lumbar has an annular tear which means that the discs have dried up and collapsed on top of each other and now I have a tumor on my sacrum. They feel that I am over-prescribed on meds and want to cut me again. Now this is the reason why nobody will fill your 180 a month. You are on a point system. The government has done this and don't be surprised if you're cut in half within the month.

Re: Jeremy (# 6)

My son is a 3 x gun shot victim. Some bastards tried to rob and car jack him. 6 yrs in pain and severe ptsd. (1 .45 bullet thru neck, 1 still in shoulder and 3rd in left leg). Gets rx for 70 oxycodone 30 mg. (Big guy and high tolerant). The usual pharmacist who knows about this was not in today, the lady didnt look him up to see his record. Simply put "ck tomorrow, dont have any). He is ridget in pain. Never ever asks for "earlier" fills. Hoping his regular pharmacist be in tomorrow. Just didn't feel right. I pick up his meds as he is mostly home bound and on disability.

There's a web-based pharmacy that is real called 'injured workers pharmacy'. My husband has been filling his rx there for 5 years and never had a problem. They work with you and with lawyers but you don't have to be hurt. They send you a free mail in order, you put your rx in it and it comes back in 24 hours with your med, via ups. They will let you pay or insurance and if you got hurt at work they charge you nothing; they bill workmans comp. They save my husband 1000's.

Pharmacy cannot get my brand of oxycodone 20s . These are made by KVK. They want to switch me to another brand. I have tried other brands and they make me sick and headaches. These are grayish purple and have a K/ 57 on one side nothing on other side. Why if I've been taking for a yr they suddenly can't get these kind.

I'm reading about all of you and the comments. I was blown up an lost my legs and hand had 70 surgeries. Went on pain medication for 25yrs. Then one day I said enough is enough. I went to Psychiatrist an went on suboxone and all my problems went away. My physical addiction and pain! I know your pain an being sick from not having the meds. I wake up no longer sick needing to take meds for pain and physical addiction. I say to all give it a try. The laws are going to get harder do to the people that abuse the drugs either by selling it or taking it themselves.
