REPORT

Any pharmacy has a right to turn anyone away. I think it sucks, bc they can lie to you if they don't like the way you look or are against it. Like birth control. They can refuse to fill if they are against after morning pill bc in their mind it's different. I was told to go near a hospital pharmacy bc of hospitals writing them for patients being released. Or find a pharmacy that isn't a chain. Like Cvs, Walgreens. Walmart is usually good. I also dress nice and try and get my mother to go also. Looks are the deal. If they don't have it in stock ask them nicely to order them. Sometimes I say that I just moved to the area with my mother to take care of her and they seem to change tunes.

I know this is an old thread but here goes... I have just been prescribed the 30's and every pharmacy I've been to either doesn't carry them or they are totally out. Is anyone else having this issue. Most of the pharms say they've either never heard of it, or can't get it.

My doc ended up giving me morphine 30's 3x a day.
Im not sure how this adds up to the oxycodone 10's that Iam supposed to get.

I have been in pain management clinics since 1998 after a disabling surgery that went sideways ..as well as have severe neuropathy in feet, legs and Rheumatoid arthritis.. And am allergic to all non-steroidal anti-inflamitories. In the past 4 months I've had a a spinal implant that has really help with the neuropathy and was switched from MS Contin 60 mg 3x a day to 60 mg OxyContin 60mg twice a day and my pain levels are way lower... The only problem is that I am not getting enough coverage physiologically as I start feeling withdrawals at about the 7 hour mark.. I am also prescribed 15mg of morphine IR 4x as needed ... At least for this first month ..I have not needed the 15mg IRs as much for pain but do take one if I'm starting to feel withdrawals.. I'm not sure I may be just a little under medicated by going from 3 MSContin SR to 2 of the 60 mg OxyContin..or is it a withdrawal from being on MSContin for so many years? If anyone has any experience being switched between MSContin and OxyContin and have felt withdrawal symptoms after 20 days.. I'd really like to know. I hate taking the breakthrough pain morphine IRs if I don't need them for pain ....but since 2 days ago I've had too to manage the withdrawal like symptoms. I know they say 1/2 life is short for Morphine based medication but I still feel like after 12 yrs of MSContin that I am possibly just having the withdrawal symptoms because it is finally cleared from my body... Any thoughts .. Thanks

Hello, Kevin! How are you? I'm sorry that you're having a problem getting your medication.

Yes, there is a shortage and it is normal for this time of year, due to mandatory manufacturing limits. Once a manufacturer reaches their allotted limit for the year, they cannot manufacture any new product, until after the new year. Every year, demand inevitably exceeds supply and we end up with shortages for the last few months of the year.

This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

Rather than raising the dose, which your doctor might be reluctant to do, it might be better to ask what your pharmacy has in stock and then see if your doctor will prescribe an equivalent dose of that, in the meantime.

Does anyone else have any suggestions or advice to add?
