Fill Oxycodone Prescription From G A (Page 3)

I have a Kentucky Licenses and went to a pain clinic in GA, they prescribed me Oxycodone 15mg and Hydrocodone 10mg. I have been to several pharmacies in Kentucky and cannot get them filled. Does anyone know where I can get my prescriptions filled rather here in Kentucky or out of state in GA or TN?? Please Help at all if possible, thanks!

Exactly right some of us on disability have medicaid who wont let us get surgery i have stage two cancer, adnemyosis, cysts in my thyroid which im not sure yet if thry are cancerous, along with all the back, neck, spine, sciatyica, a botched tmj surgery the list goes on needlrsd to say medicaid wont even let me just have a partial or full hys. until i finish all chemo for year and lupron depot and hormone replacement pills that have mafe me gain fifty plus pounds much less will they let me just get back neck etc surgery its assanign. I am made to continue pain pills to make sure i have a dependancy not an addiction there is a difference. We are not given any choice its take pain med or be stuck in bed well i have three step children as some of you who know me on here before this forum became the presidential debate and now state to state. We started this forum from Florida and to help others like ourselves suffering to find places that are willing to fill and can for us. So please unless this is what you are on this forum to do then by all means share and rant and rave all you like and need otherwise start one of your own. Donna Ratligf I speak for you in your absense i hope you dont mind being that you are in case ones here did not or dont know it already she is the advocate for Fl mainly south who originally became involved personally due to the very real and down right wrong way that the chronic pain sufferers are being treated. I am sorry if I have offended anyone this in no way is meaning to single anyone out personally but we are on here for help that we give one another in the information of availability of meds in certain areas and what kinds period. Thank you and god bless as I always say I pray each and every one of ud ends up pain free while we still walk this hell on earth.

I completely agree with you! Not everyone wants to have surgery which 9/10 times puts you worse off then you were before the surgery. In my case I'm 26 years old and have several genetic back and joint problems and my doctor refuses to send me into surgery because of the risk of crippling me and leaving me wheel chair bound for the rest of my life. It's not just a risk to me but a lot of back and neck surgeries for anyone. So "pharm tech" no its not a quick fix and magically everyone is healed with surgery. Yet I agree there is many addicts and abusers out there of narcotics and I believe they should be filtered along with all welfare& state disability cases. But it is not up to pharmacist or pharmacist techs to decide whos scripts to fill or not too as it is illegal and would cause multi million dollar law suits against pharmacies which I would love my pharmacy to refuse my scripts id slap them with a law suit so big their head would spin. The only time a script can legally be refused is if it has been tampered with,forged,fake or doctor does not verify when called. Then there is the case that they don't have the pills in stock. I worked at cvs pharmacy as a tech for 5 years and know what I have stated above is all valid. Pharmacists are not certified to override a doctors script. I would like to apologize to everyone who is truely in pain and suffering from a permanent chronic pain and is unable to fill their scripts. Hopefully one day they will make a way for them to be obtainable like having to own a narcotics license card like they have for marijuana growers/ medical users.

Closer monitoring and a card like system is the only solution...I think you have the right answer with that one.

You know what I worked at a factory job for over 6 years and was making 13 an hour with no colleage and know I am messed up my shoulder and back. So unless you ever have had pain that you wish you would just died I agree with Chris. Do your job just fill the meds stop making it so hard on people if we come in and not acting all messed up and stupid. what is the problem. Your just a being a-holes about it all.

You hit the nail on the head" do their jobs". They are not the DEA or the local detective agency or provate investigator are they? They are there to provide a medical service for patients and that is all they should DO not try to play inspector general. I mean who the hell are they to decide who is or is not a "real" chronic pain sufferer? They should be sued to hell and back and all this stuff would stop. They are the ones actually breaking the law by discriminating against someone they" cast judgement" falsely on.

So I spoke to my friend who is a pharmacist at cvs and has been for 10+ years and he has relayed to me why there seems to be a oxycodone drought. Per my friend he has stated that the FDA over the past year (when the drought seem to have started) has been doing a mass Audit on pharmacies across the USA because of thee high percentage of abuse with "oxycodone". This has caused 90-95% of pharmacies to tuck their tail between their legs and pharmacists have just outright stopped ordering the medication all together to prevent and protect their asses from being probed by the FDA. Now in cases there is pharmacies that still carry it but only fill the drug for what they consider low risk,cancer/terminally ill (with paper proof) and or reocurring patients they have filled for years. You may get a lot of malarky like when u call around to pharmacy after pharmacy and they come back everytime with nope we don't have it or some other lie is because they no longer will disclose that info over the phone due to liability or chance of being robbed for the drug and believe me it happens. Now let's move on to in pharmacy excuses...example: you bring your script to a pharmacy and they say no we don't have it and they give u the excuse of blaming the distributing company saying they don't have any (bulls*** I've called all of them they do and they say no orders have been placed and confirmed it is NOT on backorder) or we haven't had it in months that's because like I said before they aren't ordering it anymore or they already have the select amount of people they have decided to fill for because they ARE rationed by FDA on how much they are allowed to order per year of the drug or have stopped carrying due to fear of robbery which I know for a fact that is the case in Tennessee since that doctor in gainsboro was burned alive by drug addicts. Im sorry for the bad news to you guys and I guess until they have solid way of filtering the abusers out it will continue to be like this. Brutal punishment and a violation to constitutional rights but that's the governments way of controlling us sadly. My advice if you are trying to get an oxycodone script filled is to speak to your local pharmacist and provide him a copy of your narcotics agreement and document of your illness and let him make the decision to order and carry it for you. Oh and paying full cash price for the script (no insurance) at the pharmacy is a huge help too. Good luck guys hope this helped! <3333

Must be hard to see all us little unscrupulous peasants from your sactamounious mountain on high. Yes there are legit patients and non-legit ones but what qualifies u to decide?

This is a response to the "Inside Person" and how he assumes surgeory will fix people's problems thus allowing them to live their life without narcotics. Well I say that's bull because I'm a 26 year old Iraqi Combat Disabled Veteran and I was shot twice, blown up by an IED, and had cancer so tell me from all my scars, including the 14" by 3" one going up my abdomen from my right leg that surgeory will help or I don't need pain meds. I'm take 4 30mg oxycodone and with 2 15mg oxycodone for breakthrough pain and you say I'm not entitled to having you fill my prescription because I choose to go to a pain clinic versus the Veteran Affairs who makes you jump through loops and still untreats my pain. The VA wanted to give me 5mg lortab 3 times a day for my pain which completely does nothing to help me and makes my depression completely worse. So I'm curious as to how surgeory will help me, or are you going to say "It's all in my head?" because I will tell you to go to Iraq and serve this country and get injuired saving your battle buddy and then imagine how you would feel if some prick pharmacy worker tells you "I'm not filling your prescription!"

Dude your an ass..... Don't sit here and condemn people you don't even know for taking pain meds. Do you know what it's like to have 3 herniated discs in your lumbar spine with nerve root impingement ? I do and let me tell you, it sucks ass. I work full time and make more money than you ever will. So stop talking about what you don't go through everyday . Do you know what the odds are on spinal fusion relieving someone's pain when they have to be fused at 3 levels ? Not very damn good . Also, when you have a child and the only thing that keeps you going to work and enjoying just a little bit of physical activity with that child is pills, you would be taking them too.

I cant stand know it alls!! I was hit by a semi 9 monrhs ago. I sustained 3 broken ribs, 4 disc displacements in my c spine, 3 ruptured discs in my l spine, concussion, and a fractured arm. I had previous back surgery as well as diabetes. They will not touch me for any type of surgery on my back. I've begged and pleaded for it but they want me on a pain medicated regimen only. The meds don't really help other than just keeping me from breaking through my threshold. I would give them up in a heart beat at a chance to have my life back. Some people can't just go have the surgery it's not that easy. Good thing i got a 967,000.00 settlement out of all this!!

Its maffia sh.t. they give meds to who they want. Not to who actually needs them. Pills are everywhere on the street but legitamate pain patients have to suffer. Government needs to stop playing God because at one point in life u will need these meds. I feel sorry for folks who are suffering because government has no clue of what to do.

I am so happy you got some financial compensation but, you do seem to get the point that no one should play God in deciding who should or should not receive the medication or who is really in pain or not. I think it is people like you that keep going with all odds against them that give hope to others. Keep striving for the goodness and it will always come to you.

This is a number one red flag. Whether your need is legit or not, if your rx is from one state, your address in another, and you hit a pharmacy in yet another state, that screams user and abuser. No one is gonna fill it.

I'm in KY. If you are going to GA, you aren't getting any oxycodone from my store even if we have it (which is doubtful due to shortages - yes they exist). If you have that much pain, you shouldn't be driving 6 hours to a pain clinic. We're health providers and we're not doing you a service promoting a car trip for 6 hours if you are in that much pain.
Second, we aren't giving out oxycodone information over the phone. Sorry. We value our safety.
Third, it IS OUR JOB BY LAW to determine if a prescription is appropriate before filling. We're not playing God any more than the MD is who determined you needed the med. We're on the hook just as much as the MD who prescribed it.
Finally, I DO know how to compound. I also can read the computer when it tells me there's an interaction. It takes a pharmacist to know how to interpret that. Interactions constantly occur and it takes a trained pharmacist to value the importance of those interactions.
And for those who still think pharmacists are pill counters, go check out what a clinical pharmacist does some time. Many have never counted a pill since school.

First I totally disagree and in fact it's not legal fir a pharmacist to deny you medication that an actual doctor prescribes you. What actual knowledge does he have ill tell you none at least not compared to a doctor! Second not all of the people on this medication can afford to get surgery! I for example am a carpenter with severe back issues from a car accident, in wich I was actually in a coma, a neck injury from the same and I have a blown out knee from a skiing accident when I was a kid! Oh I forgot to mention I have a severe hernia. Guess what moron I don't have insurance I have 2 kids and I pay for thier doctors and my own and without that medication I wouldn't be able to work so don't sit up on your little pedestal and act like you know anything about the real work who are you to judge ?? I work I pay my own cost I went to the emergency room for my hernia and they told me unless I'm in danger on strangulating my nut I'm on my own if you I'm all your wisdom will pay for the surgeries I need to be able to function I'd glady get off all of this medicine but until then don't pass judgment one day you may need these medicines and them we will see how you talk !!! Ignorance is bliss I guess that still rings true!!

The states differ on the laws about the pharmacist being able to actually deny a script or not. I know in Texas they have the legal right to deny any prescription if it is not life threatening to the patient to do so. Now does that make it right that they do so? Of course NOT. They are not in a position to pass judgement but, then again neither is have the people that pass judgement about really important things everyday. The reality is that unfortunately some really nasty people decided to use this drug as a recreational drug and abuse it and create hardship for people like you and me that really need this medicine and take it as directed. You notice that the guy that posted the original hateful troll post has yet to come back and defend his original post? Yeah he is a coward apparently. I let him know from a physician and patients perspective how wrong he is and he has not even replied to me yet. I have taken oxycodone for a long time and I now take oxymorphone ER and oxycodone IR for breakthrough . The Opana ER ( extended release) is better than Oxycotin ER in strength about 10 times stronger ( more effective) in relieving chronic pain syndrome like you and I have. The Oxycodone IR ( immediate release) was designed to work for no more then 4-6 hours maximum and I rarely have patients report it lasting more then 4 hours.

@inside person

PREACH! you speak the truth..I work at a legit pain clinic and the physician I work for wouldn't be CAUGHT DEAD prescribing the amount of medications people have told us they're on.

The amount of prescription medication addiction going around today is SICK and it's because of these unethical, sick doctors with no conscious at all. These "physicians" are making DRUG ADDICTS who will be on heroin before we know it.

Oxycodone can't work forever...it was not made for chronic pain. It is HIGHLY addictive. What are you going to do when the 3 or 4 you're prescribed a day don't work anymore? Start taking 5 or 6? Then 7 or 8?...come on people, use common sense. There is a reason the DEA and governmental agencies are cracking down on this. It is not being prescribed the right way.

NEWS FLASH: Oxycodone 30mg and oxycodone 15mg are BOTH breakthrough medications in the way they breakdown and release into your body. Just because one is 30mg and one is 15mg doesn't mean one will outlast the other. Any doctor that tells you otherwise has no business in pain management.

So, you have real pain. You should go to a REAL pain management doctor, not a drug dealer with a script pad. For some of you, it may not be your fault...you may have not known better...GET OUT NOW.
