(Newest replies first)

Updated

With the new Kasper law that went in to effect 7-20-2012 in Kentucky requiring that my doctor run a Kasper report before prescribing any pain meds - am I required to get the script filled in Kentucyk since Kasper does not cross state lines ?

The main problem you are going to run into, regardless of this particular law, is that virtually no pharmacy is filling out of area prescriptions anymore.

This has been a very recent change that is causing problems for people all over the country. In most cases to get them filled, you need to to live within a certain radius of the pharmacy you are using. There are very few exceptions.

Why can't you get it filled locally?
