How To Write A Prescription

Am in central FL & just lost my pain dr. after 10 yrs. I have several intractable pain conditions which means without pain medication I simply would be bedridden & slowly die. I have attempted to establish a new dr. to maintain my pain relief but have been turned away from over 10 now-not to mention the others whom my primary sent records to & they simply denied even an appointment for me. Am wheelchair bound & in extremely obvious pain (deformed arms, knees, back) but here apparently drs. licenses are more important than treating patients. I was actually told by one specialist he wouldn't write me prescriptions because he not want to lose his license. Others simply made excuses why they couldn't take me as a patient client. I had no problems until sept2012 then ...

I went to my Dr. and got my refills of oxycodone and my diazepam and recently let my 25 yr old son move back in. It's not allowed to be filled till October 31st. Called Police who said they couldn't do anything. My Dr. couldn't write anyone, SO what do I do? ## Chris, I realize you posted this back on October 22nd and I'm really sorry to hear about what happened, but it sounds like the situation between you and your son should probably be dealt with on a more personal level, considering that he's your roommate. Don't let the tension build up without disclosing your feelings to him, at least for the sake of adding some closure to what took place. If there was any risk of undergoing serious withdrawal symptoms (god forbid), it seems to me that the emergency room wo...

You can also ask your current dr for a referral. Pain Management Drs have pain contracts and routine drug panels. You will also need your medical records along with the diagnostic results for the cause of your pain. The dr will be the ones to decide what pain meds he gives you. Don't...

Please help.. I have been on narcotics for chronic back pain for 19 years and just moved to VA. I need to find a good Dr. that is not afraid to continue with my meds. I take several different pain meds .Any help would be appreciated.. ## @"Comments Submitted"... Since you've written your question over three years ago, I'm not going to go into any of my history at this point. Where in VA are you located. I moved back here from MD in 2007 and had been seeing a PMDR in MD for over eight years. I did find one in VA last December, but had such a bad experience, by the grace of God I was able to get a PMDR close to home in the same office as my orthopedic surgeons. Just let me know if you've found one or not. ## I live in winston salem nc so if u live anywhere near Danvill...

I have a prescription for hydrocodone 'take one every 8 hours as needed' qty 60. Got them to take instead of tramadol when I'm in a lot of pain. Last week & 1/2, I've been having major pain and the dr said I could take them every 6 hours til we get worked through this. So, I'm sure I'll run out, as I'm already getting low, before the monthly refill of all my meds. Since this is only a qty of 60, how soon can I get it refilled, as the dr. told me to try that first but if they wouldn't let me, he'd write a new script. ## Since this is a controlled substance, due to the Hydrocodone in it, which is a narcotic, the pharmacy can't legally fill it for you, until it is actually due for a refill. Federal law prohibits them from doing so. They may fill ...

I live in north Mississippi and looking fffor a Dr. that will write for pain and nerve medicine ## Hello, Timbo! How are you? I'm sorry, but there is no database of doctors according to who will or will not prescribe anything that I can refer to for you. Additionally, with the new regulations that were put in place this year, you'll most likely need to see two different specialists for such medications to be prescribed. Do you currently have a PCP that you see regularly that could refer you to someone? If so, that would most likely be the easiest and quickest way to get the help you need.

Addicted to H. Need doctor in Phila who writes RX for methadone. want to work. can't go to clinic everyday ## Hello, Ann! How are you? I'm sorry, but under current laws, a clinic is your only option. Regular doctors aren't allowed to prescribe it for addiction treatment. 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. Can anyone suggest a good clinic in that area? ## Yes you can the one on parkside ave opens at 630.. Not too mant Drs these days write for Methadone. Suboxone perhaps There is also a clinic on the border of Ridley and Chester. I would try the suboxone. You can probably find a Dr. on line for thst.

I want know how to get oxycodone 30mg and xanex 2mg mail ordered ## Hello, Kev! How are you? Most places will not do this, due to the risks of theft and diversion. You are better off going to your local pharmacy to get your prescriptions filled. Both of these medications also carry the risk of being habit forming. Is there anything else I can help with? ## And how exactly does a layperson make the necessary diagnoses that indicate Xanax 2mg is the drug of choice and theta of choice. The only time I write for Xanax 2mg IS if I'm not certain if a "Favored generic" is available or when a patient transfers from a trusted colleague. Oxycodone 30mgIR. Are you out of your mind Even the Holy Father wouldn't take that explanation on faith. "I want it because I think I need it...

My Dr is no longer allowed to write for zanx, yet I have to fills left. Due to the change of dr the pharmacy won't fill! I already discussed weening off them & why I'm on such low does& have not even taken it unless can't sleep & or having anxiety(both happens few times week) Can they just stop it? I thought you have to ween off them. So guess questions is more of why a Dr would no longer be able to write & if was written prior(just 4 weeks ago) & what to fo ## Yes, they can just stop, unless you are in immediate life-threatening danger, no doctor is obligated to treat you, or prescribe anything. I am not saying it's right, but that is what U.S. federal law currently states. As to why they can no longer prescribe it, or will no longer prescribe it, th...

I was prescribed to take 1-2 Norco every 8 hours as needed for pain. How long should they last me before my next prescription? Thanks ## Hi Tee - would you happen to know how many tablets in total are in the prescription bottle? Based on what you have said so far, 1 tablet every 8 hours is 3 tablets per day. So, that's about 90 tablets per month. Could you write back with how many tablets are in the entire prescription? ## If you are taking 2 tablet every 8 hours, that is six tablets a day. Divide the number of tablets the prescription is for by the number of tablets you take a day. Or you can look on the information sheet from the pharmacy. It should have how many days the prescription should last. ## I just had surgery and the dr wrote me a prescription for 40 hydrocodone (taking ...

If my script states "may fill on 11/30", is that the same as "do not fill until"? Just wondering if I could pick up before 11\30. Thank you ## Hello, Ladybug! How are you? Yes, it would be considered the same by most pharmacies, according to the DEA prescribing directions. Is it a controlled substance? Those are typically the ones that doctors write that on. Generally, it may be done with some opiates, stimulants and benzodiazepines. ## Thank you for replying! Yes, it is for my pain med. He had never wrote that before so I was a little confused. I didn't know if they would except it today or not. I am actually due to fill today but he messed up with the 30th date on it . The office was closed to get it corrected. I'll just have to wait i guess. Thanks again ## Ye...

I need a refill until i can get in to see psychitrist... 3week wait:(Please help me;)Anyone Know A Dr Who Will Write Me Adderall Prescription Bellevue Wa ## To be honest, finding a doctor to give it to you in WA, without their having your full medical records and being your regular doctor, is going to be difficult. There is a walk-in medical clinic in Bellevue, have you tried seeking assistance there? Is there some reason you're out, before your appointment? Usually most doctors will schedule appointments around the same time refills are needed. Learn more Adderall information here.

My patient has recently had two (2) toes removed and he has extreme bad pain in his right foot. If you could help him out and get the right pain medication what would you recommend? ## Ideally, only a qualified physician who's examined the patient in person and reviewed their medical history can make an appropriate judgement call on adequate treatment for something like this. However from a layman's (outside) perspective it would seem that starting off with something mid-level in strength would allow for substantial wiggle room in the dosage and/or type of narcotic analgesic being administered. In my personal opinion based solely off observation (not having had any of my toes removed and can't fathom the amount of pain that might ensue) a moderate dose of hydrocodone appears...

I would like to know how to obtain a prescription. ## send info please ## Desoxyn was prescribed to me and my son for narcolepsy. It is amazing that such a safe & effective drug was taken off the market. We have not been awake since the discontinuince of desoxyn. We currently take adderrall & dexedrine, they don't come close. What a better world it would be if it were still available. ## If you have ADD , ADHD or Narcolepsy, Your Doctor can write you a script. Usually only if nothing else works! Provigil...ect...Aderrall, ritilan, Dexadrine.... Just makes my heart beat fast, gives me the jitters and makes me feel .....scared!???? DESOXYN does not do this. It is absorbed much better in the fatty tissue of the brain. The HORROR stories are from the crap sold on the steet. 15 t...

Doctors will not write RX for this anymore. I am allergic to Vicodin, Codeine all sorts of pain meds. Soma always worked for me. I sit with extreme pain; nothing works all = depression; never had depression till whole body turned into pain. Real, overwhelming pain; can't sleep; cannot eat; nausea from pain. ## There are better muscle relaxers than Soma on the market. Many Doctors don't like prescribing Soma as they have had personal experience with this worthless medication. With that said I am lucky my doctor will prescribe it, he is a great man! ## There's too many interactions between Soma opiate drugs and benzodiazepines for doctors to prescribe them as they once were ## I have the exact problem if they won't prescribe soma than the key should have something that wor...

How would a doctor write out a prescription for 15mg percs? Would it just say 15mg Percocet? I currently take 7.5mg/325 percocets but I'm going to a new doctor since mine moved away and I wanted to change the mgs to 15 without the acetaminophen. I can modify this on my medication list that I printed out from my old doctors website patient portal. Just want to make sure I write it correctly. ## Percocet doesn't come in a 15 mg. Percocet is a combination of oxycodone and acetaminophen. Oxycodone does come in 15 mg without the acetaminophen You may want to think twice about changing anything in your medical records or pharmacy info. Your new Dr can easily look up all the pain meds your old Dr prescribed you in your states Prescription Monitoring Program Database and most, if not al...

I lost my prescription paper for valium. I have MS and taking valium is NECESSARY for sleep.She REFUSED my request that she write me another one and said i have to wait three months. I live in CA. What can i do? ## Hello, Krizzy! How are you? I'm very sorry about what happened. Unfortunately, there isn't much you can do. It is your responsibility to keep track of your written prescriptions and, if you lose one, your doctor is under no obligation to provide you with a new one. However, a sudden withdrawal from a benzodiazepine, after long-term use, can create the risk of your experiencing seizures, as listed by the FDA. Thus, if you start to experience severe withdrawals, that may also include nausea, irritability, headache, diarrhea and/or seizures , you should seek emergency me...

I have situational anxiety, my pcp prescribes me 0.5 alprazolam. She normally writes a prescription which states to take 1 tablet orally 1 x a day. Heres the thing i take them as needed, which is not nearly as much as i am prescribed! it is now 5-5-17 ive had the same prescription since 3-17-17 and still a few left.
