Norco Shortage In Michigan (Page 12)
(Newest replies first)

Is anyone else having problems finding a pharmacy to fill their scripts of Norco? I have been taking them for a few years now for my chronic pain. I always go to the same pharmacy chain, and its always the same doctor who writes my scripts, but since the new law change no one seems to have them in stock. Some pharmacists told me it was a manufacturer back order. We are told not to go without our meds, but yet how is that possible if we can't get them? Anyone knows of a pharmacy that has Norco 10/325 in the metro Detroit area?

REPORT

Not one Pharmacy has Norco in stock. My friend has a broken back, leg, ribs & needs his pain medication. Changing it to a class 2 was a mistake & is causing so many problems. People that have been on them for years are going to end up in the ER for serious withdrawal & pain. Just because some overdosed on the medication it is not our fault. Millions of prescription were taken as prescribed so 17,00 people mixed it with other drugs & caused their own death, No E file prescriptions so every month you have to take off work to go pick up your RX. The FDA needs to rethink this process as it is causing too many problems. All Medical records are supposed to be electronic. \

Dear In Pain All Day, Man i have been on vicodin and now norco for the past twelve years and learned alot, what they are doing now is they want all of your business and all of your scripts, they wont just fill a control or narcotic man u gotta transfer all your s*** and if u dont take anything else go the the doctor and tell em u got high blood pressure to get a damn blood pressure pill this way your filling something with it, hope this helps man.

Totally agree, no matter what happens we need to know who is responsible and if we can't sue them in Mi. sue in Federal court. Someone must be held responsible for this pain!

I had knee surgery on right knee in Aug took vicodan then had to have surf on left knee one month later and having problems getting any dice new law by Dea passed I live in n caliif. I. Have talked to 6 pharmacists and have been told. They have no idea what the problem is--that was today CVS. Med will be inn in its not-- packaging - ii could go on but not one of them gave me an answer.CVS was the worst. My son drove me up to the drive up window and they said I had to walk into store and hand them the script. We explained I couldn't walk. We asked if I could hand them the script would that work. From the drive through window. They said no. I. Asked my Dr and he said he hadn't heard there was a problem getting the medicine and he is an orthopedic Dr. I am telling all my friends to cancel any planned surgeries How can theDEA get medical information about a patient when we have the patient confidentially law effect?

Ok so. Found a Walgreen that has them. West rd and telegraph. My wife drove down there and they told her that they cant fill it for jer because we dont live with in a 15 mile radius. And we live just about that. And we normally get them filled at the Walgreen by our house. What a bunch of bs. It also seems like they dont want to fill them unless you have other scripts to fill.

You can ask for tramadol or crappy Tylenol 3-4s but I find the withdraw from tramadol worse. Also working at a veterinary office tramadol is now a controlled substance as of a few months ago. Gabapetin is not controlled and I sometimes take this to break up how much Tylenol or acetaminophen I'm putting into my body and it seems to help with my fibromyalgia
