Getting Oxycodone Filled In Atlanta (Page 2) (Top voted first)

I have a prescription for Oxycodone 30mg for an injury suffered in the military. My doctor and I worked hard to come up with a combination of medications that help me to function normally. I have been a regular customer of Kroger for 10 years, and the npharmaciata there are familiar with my history. Last month, they told me they could not fill them because they weren't able to get the medicine. I have been to approx 60pharmacies trying to get my medicine. There seems to be a problem with getting this medication filled away from my home pharmacy. I am tired of being shunned by pharnacists and treated like I am a junkie. I am a resprcted businesman who is just trying to get my medication filled. I have a history with Krogerthat my pharmacist will happily provide. Does anyone know where I can get my prescription filled or what else I can do?

I live in Atlanta, Ga. I am 38 weeks pregnant and in need of major dental work which cannot be done until my child is born. I have a scheduled cesarean on January 19th. This week I was given a prescription by my doctor for 5mg Percocet. I went to about 13 Pharmacies including CVS, Walgreens, Rite Aid, and a few local family owned facilities. I was told by each that they were "out of stock". This was very surprising to me. I find it difficult to believe. Am I being profiled? I am in excruciating pain, and have a legitimate prescription for medications that I am unable to function without. I never got my prescription filled and am spending my days having screaming crying fits because the pain is too much to bare. Furthermore, what will happen when I have my cesarean. The recovery of major surgery is NOT REALISTIC without pain medication. Is there anything I can say to the pharmacist or doctor to help? I won't be able to survive this recovery with no medication. I am scared to death to have my baby because I won't be able to receive proper care afterwards! What can I do? Please help!

thlin, it is common for Schedule II meds to be scarce this time of year. Manufacturers are only given a certain amount of active ingredients every year. You can ask the pharmacys when theri Schedule II order come in and call or go back on those days to see if it came in. Or you can ask your dentist to write you a prescription for another pain med or another mg. You can also ask the pharmacist if they have the med in another mg and what that mg is. Or ask your dentist to call the pharmacy.
