Refilling My Xanax 4 Days Early (Page 2)
(Newest replies first)

I get xanax 1mg perscribed to me. On the lable it says take 1 to 2 a day as needed. I only receive 50 pills. I got it filled on 7.17 and today is 8.12. I use gateway insurance at a CVS pharmacy.

It has been 26 days if i am correct. That means if i take 1 pill a day thats 26 out of 50, 1.5 pill a day is 39 out of 50 and at 2 a day thats 52 out of 50.

Well wait, if i only have 50 pills, i cant take 52, which by refill date would 60 pills.

I have 2 refills left, i was wondering if i would have a problem getting them refilled, i have read insurance goes by the percentage of pills left. Well it depends on how you look at it depending on what i "should" have left...

Hi, if docter wrote a script saying 1-2 tabs daily, the doctor usually give the amount based on the 2 tabs daily. Also it is a good idea to turn the other script into the pharmacy and they will log it I in
your record and fill it when it's time. You can have automatic refill or you can call it the refill yourself. Do not pharmacy hop or doctor hop.

There are some over zealous Pharmacists that will attempts to mess with you. Some of these employees don't belong working with customers. If it was me I would ask this worker for the name(s) of their Pharmacy manager and contact information for the district pharmacy manager. I would also contact the store manager as well. Of course you are allowed to pick up medicine one or 2 days early. You might also file a complaint with your state pharmacy board and make your intentions known. This advice coming from someone who's name was changed to NO GC (Gift Card) due to a complaint with a pharmacist and the on duty manger. This happened to me one time at KMart and I will never forget it. However do keep in mind your insurance might not pay for your refill until the final day listed on the bottle?

Hello, King! How are you?

Does the pharmacy label list the days supply? If so, then they expect it to last that long and will not refill before then.

This medication carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability.
