We will give you just the right amount and you need to remember to call your doctor, make sure to get a confirmation of the prescription renewal, check with your pharmacy that they received it. Go and get your medication. All that within 3 days of you running out. Also the pharmacy is out of your medication and we’ll get it on about 4 to 7 days. Now you need to remember to call them to check if they received it every day. And that’s how I spent two weeks without meds. I didn’t feel any withdraw, but my wife had to constantly remind me to do things that I could do without reminder while I took them. This is the dumbest system ever.

Yeah, every time I have to get any other medicine I'm always blown away. The doctor is just like "what pharmacy do you go to?" Like, uh, excuse me? They just phone it in??? I have to physically take a physical piece of paper and physically go to the pharmacy but you're telling me the norm is to just call it in???
