No, they are not allowed to do so, when it involves a controlled substance. Some pharmacies will allow you to fill it a day early, but most will make you wait until the exact date it is due.

The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth.

These prescriptions are tracked in a database overseen by the government, so trying to get it filled at a different pharmacy could result in legal issues for you.

How are you doing, now? Why did you run out early?
