Im not sure how many of you rely on ADHD medication, but I thought I would share an awesome experience I had today!
So my partner takes 1 20mg XR adderall daily. During the shortage (that is apparently still semi taking place) she began using a small mom and pop pharmacy as they were able to fill it.
Today, she had her appointment to get her next month filled as were going on vacation for two weeks on Sat. This was about a day early, nothing crazy, never filled early before or “lost it”, anything like that. Anyhow, the pharmacy called and said they would not accept it because their ratio was off for controlled vs non controlled dispenses. They said if she had filled other scripts in the past they would, but because this is the only thing she fills (and frankly the only thing she takes) they would not.
This began a lonnnng afternoon of calling various pharmacies per the doctor’s request to see if they had it in stock and would fill. Most of the big box places said they would fill after a hold? 72 hours, which wasnt going to work. The smaller ones I called to wouldnt even tell me if they had it (which I can understand, I know a lot of people abuse it).
Then I called Crest on the south side. They. Were. Amazing. SUPER sweet, answered all of our questions, said they had plenty so no worries there, and as soon as the doc would send theyd have it in 20 min. I actually picked it up for her with her ID and they were so so kind, efficient, and didnt make me feel like a drug seeker (partner has had this issue in the past).
So, if anyone here uses this medication, I HIGHLY recommend Crest. Side note, my partners new insurance doesnt kick in until the 1st, and the cash price was only $28!
OP never said they are actively driving nor on their phone. And yeah sometimes if you need a good cry its best to find somewhere outside of your environment and let it all out
Best place to pull over and cry?
