Do I Need To Have A Prescription Get Thie Drug

My son was prescribed Focalin XR 40mg twice a day. He's 23. But having trouble getting it filled. Called the manufacturer, they say there are no back orders on any of the doses. Can't understand why I can't find a pharmacy that carries it. ## Are you actually going to the pharmacies, with the prescription in hand to ask if they have it? If you just call, you won't get an accurate answer, because they have no way of knowing if the person on the phone is a legitimate customer with a need or a potential thief. This medication carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, insomnia and anorexia. ## Yes I went from pharmacy to pharmacy. Also some of the pharmacies called for me. I also called the manufacturer. They said there ...

Why is it so hard to get my prescription filled?? ## Unfortunately, since Oxycodone is such a potent narcotic, its rates of abuse and diversion have only continued to grow over the years and this has resulted in many pharmacies deciding not to carry it, because of the risk of being robbed. One thing you want to make sure you do, when looking to get this type of prescription filled, is to make sure you actually go into the pharmacies, with the prescription in hand, so they can see that you are a legitimate customer. If you are just calling around to ask, they have no way of knowing if you are a real customer or a possible thief, so most pharmacies will not give you a correct answer, they will just automatically say they don't carry it. If you continue to have trouble finding a pharma...

I live in Houston, TX (77092 area) and have called major, "mom and pop", even obscure pharmacies. I can NOT find a place that carries methadone! (10 mg. 120 ct.) I am so frustrated! Can anybody tell me where to look? I lived in League City, south of Houston, before and they carried it AND my other script (Norco 10/325) at the local Walgreens. But I can't find a Walgreens IN Houston that carries Methadone. Help! ## Hello, Aaron! How are you? The problem is that you're calling the pharmacies. When you do that and are asking about a controlled substance like this, you are not going to get an honest answer. They have no way of knowing if the person on the phone is a legitimate customer with a need, or a potential thief. The only way to get an accurate answer is by actually g...

Im power of attourny over my granmother an shes been taking oxycodone for years an now i cant find a place to fill the shes a cronic pain pactent anyone have any ideas ## There has been a shortage, so some places may not have any in stock, yet. This happens fairly regularly towards the end of the year and into the first few weeks of the new year. Learn more Oxycodone details here. I also have to ask how you are checking to see if a pharmacy can fill it? Because, if you're calling them, then you won't get an honest and accurate answer, because they have no way of knowing if the person on the phone is a legitimate customer, or a potential thief. This is a controlled substance with a very high theft rate, so if someone just calls, they will usually just tell you that they don't...

i moved to bilixi a few months ago. i detoxed from methadone using suboxone. finally found a doctor now i need to fill the prescription ## Hello, Reeree! How are you? Have you tried asking your doctor? They may know who in the area can fill it for you, there might even be a specific pharmacy that they recommend for their patients. 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. If you've been trying to find a pharmacy on your own, you should be made aware that you can't call them to ask about such a medication. They have no way of knowing if the person on the phone is a legitimate patient with a need, or a potential thief, so they will usually just tell you th...

Anyone wanted to get ride of thier porcocet I would be interested ## I'm sorry, but obtaining a prescription medication in this manner is considered illegal activity in the U.S., which is where we are based and the laws that we must abide by, thus we cannot allow this type of thing to take place, or be facilitated through our website. Have you tried consulting a doctor?

Which pharmacies in the Las Vegas Nv. area that carry the generic for percocet, endocet ## I'm sorry, but there is no central database showing what pharmacies have any given medication in stock, it would be virtually impossible to maintain such a resource, since the information would be so dynamic. The only thing you can really do is check with your various local pharmacies. Learn more Percocet details here. The best piece of advice I can give you is to actually go in to the pharmacies, with your prescription in hand, when you're trying to see which one has it in stock. If you just call, they have no way of knowing if the person on the phone is a legitimate customer with a need, or a potential thief, so they will usually just say that they don't carry it.

I need to know where in new York city I can fill my rx this morning ## I had to accept a different pain medication this month because the Pharmacy that I use didn't have endocet. I then called several pharmacy's in my area and none of them had it. How can I get my prescription filled without having to use a substatute like oxycodone and acetaminophen? ## If you were calling the pharmacies, it is likely that you didn't receive an honest answer, due to the fact that they have no way of knowing if the person on the phone is a legitimate patient with a need, or a potential thief. Thus, the only way to get a real answer is by physically going to the pharmacy with your prescription in hand, so they know you are a real customer that needs a medication filled.

The pharmacy where i use get my script for oxycodone 30mg 150 pill are no longer carry the pill. I been to a lot pharmacy and a lot said the don't carry them. Does any body know where in new york i can get this fill in. PLZ EMAIL AT xxxxx@xxx {edited for privacy} ## There are almost always shortages of narcotic medications towards the end of the year, due to mandatory manufacturing limits. On top of that, if you're asking them if they carry it, or can fill the prescription, without actually showing them the prescription, then you will usually get told that they don't carry it. The reason for that is because if they don't actually see a prescription, they have no way of knowing if you are a legitimate customer, or a potential thief. Learn more Oxycodone details here.

they are round and know markings on the pills at all found them in a oxycodone bottle 10/325 is on the bottle too ## I have had hip surgery and got oxycodone 10-325 perscribed to me when i got the scrip they were round and had imprints on them and the other two times i filled the scrip they had no markings on them they were from a different company that the pharmacy went with because they were cheaper to get pills from pharmacys order thier pills online and companies put bids in and the lowest bid get bought ## If the tablets have no markings on them, then they are not a U.S. manufactured and approved prescription medication. They are all required to have imprints to enable their identification in case of emergency. If they have no markings, then it is most likely that they are just an ...

How are you trying to locate them? Are you actually going into the pharmacies, with your prescription in hand and asking if they can fill it, or are you calling them? The reason I ask is because if you are calling them, in most cases, you will not get an accurate answer. They have no way of knowing if the person on the phone is a legitimate customer or a potential thief, so they will usually just tell you that they do not carry controlled substances. In addition, have you tried talking to your doctor about an alternative medication that you can use? There is a time released formulati...

I am a student in Atlanta, GA, and I cannot find anyone that will fill my prescription from a local doctor for Oxycodone 30's...any suggestions? Please help!

If you have just been calling around, you are not likely going to get an honest answer. There is a huge problem with pharmacies being robbed of controlled substances, especially Oxycodone and, if you are just calling, they have no way of knowing if you are a legitimate customer or a potential thief, so they will usually just automatically say they don't carry it.

Will this help with strep throat ? As my mom is trying to make me take it. ## According to an abstract from nih.gov, Sulfamethoxazole and Trimethoprim is no longer commonly recommended by doctors for treating respiratory tract infections (such as strep throat) - as streptococcus pyogenes is believed to be resistant to this drug. This is not to say it won't work or that it never gets prescribed. However it does suggest that perhaps there are better/safer options out there of which I'd encourage you to ask your doctor about after an in person evaluation. Besides that, if your mom doesn't have a full prescription you could end up creating an even stronger antibiotic resistant bacteria that only makes things worse. Visiting the doctor will ensure that you have enough of the righ...

Whwere to fill my rx of 112 30mg of oxycodone in jax fl today! ## Unfortunately, what any pharmacy has in stock, at any given time, can be very dynamic information, which means that even if we had access to it, they may use up their supply, before you could get there with your prescription. However, the best advice I can give you is to actually go to the pharmacies, with your prescription in hand to see if they can fill it for you. If you just call them, they have no way of knowing if you are a real customer with a legitimate need, or a potential thief, so they usually will not provide you with an accurate answer.

i HAVE CALLED ABOUT 15 PHARMACYS TO FILL MY PERSCRIPTION FOR 60 DILAUDID 4 MG AND NO ONE HAS ANY , WHATS THE PROBLEM ? ## Well, the first problem is the fact that you're calling them to ask. Doing that will rarely get you a real, correct answer. When you call a pharmacy asking if they can fill a prescription for a controlled substance, they will usually just tell you that they don't have it, because they have no way of knowing whether the person on the phone is a legitimate customer with a prescription, or if they are potential thief. With the increasing amount of robberies, they have to protect themselves. Therefore, the only way to get an accurate answer is to actually go into the pharmacy, with your prescription in hand.

The best thing to do is to physically go to the pharmacies, with your prescription in hand and see if they have it in stock or can order it for you.
