Oh, fucking fucktards
Sep. 22nd, 2009 11:14 pmSo I have multiple medications, which, for various reasons, have different refill schedules. So two of them are getting close to empty, and I call the pharmacy, and do their automated phone refill request thing; and one of them goes through fine, but the other one triggers a "We're sorry, but it's too soon to refill this prescription based on the frequency and dosage assigned by your physician," or something along those lines.
Which made me go wtf, because I have five pills left, of a twice-a-day pill. Two and a half days.
So I look at the prescription to make sure I wasn't, like, mistaking a once-a-day pill for a twice-a-day; but no, it says twice a day, it says Qty: 60, etc.
So I look at the date filled: 9/10/09.
Something is very very wrong here.
I mean, yes, I filled it then, and that explains the too-soon message; but that means they didn't give me anywhere near the amount they were supposed to.
*snarls*
I am not very good at confrontations. Plus there's the thing where they only have my word for it -- if their system says they gave me 60 on the 10th, I'm probably screwed. It's not, afaik, a high-value drug (it's not like I'm trying this with oxycontin or something), but still, they don't know that I'm not hiding the rest of it somewhere.
Gah. I did not need this.
