Norco Refill Question

Updated

I have a prescription for Norco 4x a day, 120 pills total. The dr has written it for 20 day supply. When would be the soonest I could submit my refill? She wrote the refill for December 15th, last month I filled it on the 20th. Would I have to wait until the 20th again or can I submit it to CVS on the 15th?

Anna,

If the doc dispensed #120 with a sig. of one qid that's a 30 day supply. You'd have to wait 30 days from the filled on date so the 20th would be your available date.

Do u get the norco 853's and 120 a month? I was wondering if i could ask my dr. to up my script from 90 to 120 a month because they dont seem to be working that good. Is this possible?

@Craig - Yes, it is definitely possible. However.... It's solely up to the whit and whim of your doctor as to whether or not they choose to up the quantity of your prescription. Because every physician is different we can't possibly predict what they will or will not do (even if you ask politely and have proof of your need via MRI's, scans, etc)... We can only hope that you have a compassionate and understanding doctor who is willing to do what's in their patients' best interest. In this day and age with the DEA cracking down on abuse, many chronic pain patients probably consider themselves lucky to even get a prescription for such meds and not be forced to do inj's. and physical therapy as an alternative (something I hear about happening more frequently in these discussion threads)... So while it doesn't hurt to ask, I also wouldn't get your hopes up too high; I'd just maintain optimism.

I have a prescription for a 30 day supply of Norco. Can CVS refill it on the 30th day? I'm up at 4:30 with pain. My dr put on my previous rx to refill it on the 30th day. So will I be able to get my meds filled on the 30th day? Thank you.
