Still allocating a few hours every month to calling around to find out who has what in stock. I call my prescription into a different pharmacy every month and since moving to my area 8 months ago I have visited 6 completely different pharmacies ( two repeats, but not consecutive months).

Same for me.

I haven’t had a problem at all. Local pharmacy, not a chain. I pay a lot out of pocket. I have a feeling that might be why I haven’t had an issue

Had to switch back to name brand vyvanse because there’s no where around me that has generic, Takeda also removed the discount they offered where I live 😅 so just expensive

I’ve changed medication once and may change back now that medication #1 is more readily available these days than medication #2… but it’s still a complete toss up on whether I get meds on time every month. Like M1 I also have to devote a few hours every month to the search and flip between a handful of different pharmacies depending on who has what stock when I’m up for a fill.

Interesting. Let’s see if the uptick In cases continues to drive an uptick in hospitalizations and then in fatalities. Depends on how many of the cases are incidental or in very young people not prone to severe cases. But either way, look at the hospital capacity utilization figures! This is the untold story. Were we bending the curve to avoid unnecessary deaths due to overcrowded hospitals, or were we bending the curve to buy time for treatments and vaccine, or just to slow fatalities?
