I can only think of two off hand.\nNot enough money, or you don't think you need it anymore.\nOh yeah, number three, if you're just too lazy to get up and go get it.

Oh, I know! I'm almost 27 frigging years old and STILL have to chew up my pills. I recently had to start taking Prevacid for acid reflux disease and I have to open it up, put the medicine in a cup (which look like teeny tiny white marbles BTW), put it in my mouth, and drink water with it. Although I remember to give my daughter her meds every day... me on the other hand.... take three meds in the a.m. and two meds in the p.m., I cannot remember to take them for the life of me!

I think many doctors are afraid of patients becoming dependent or diverting the drugs (selling them instead of taking them).  Unfortunately, a few bad apples cause many to suffer.\n\nWe also have the problem of the DEA looking over our shoulders.  Doctors don't want to lose their license or go to jail for over-prescribing.\n\nI give my patients as much narcotic as I can without causing them to stop breathing (I'm an anesthesiologist).\n\nIn the very little experience I've had with chronic pain patients, I've seen a lot of dodgy behavior relating to pain meds ("The dog ate my prescription", "My pills were stolen - again", etc. etc.)  It makes you very suspicious of everyone.\n\nIn my regular practice, I also see patients who want 2 months of post-op pain medicine for a procedure that shouldn't require more than a day of Motrin.\n\nIf more people were honest, you wouldn't have the problems that you did.

Why were you refused pain meds?  Were you just asking for them too often?   Or did you not get any at all?  If they just flat out refused to give them to you, you may have a lawsuit.  A little money in your pocket courtesy of those who tormented you ought to make your dreams a little sweeter.

All the major drug companies in the US offer free or discounted medication for those who are uninsured and cannot afford their prescriptions. Visit www.needymeds.com for more information. It is a free service, and they're pretty good about keeping all the information up-to-date.\n\nAlso, be sure to ask your doctor for free samples, and explain to him that you cannot afford some of your prescriptions. My doctors usually give me a 1-3 month supply at a time.

If they are not stocked at the pharmacy why not go and get them prescribed from your doctor.  You really dont know what you're getting off the net and you could be taking something dangerous or addictive. xx

Because there are meds out there now that tell them stress is severe and over-dramatic. Doctors sympathize with them to sell more drugs and really, they use their "conditions" to excuse a lot of what they do/don't do.

no where I know of places can't sell it without a prescription it is addictive and many people sell it like street drugs when they have it so it's a drug that requires prescription. Trying finding a free clinic or reduced cost clinic in your area most places have them for people and charge based on income.

I suggest you call your pharmacist and ASK. You should have been provided with information when the prescription was filled. If not, ASK FOR IT.
