As far as norco scripts go, I will side with the professioals whose careers are at state to set and follow protocols. But anecdotally, the strict adherence to prescription filling has spilled into the insurance/copay arena for much more benign substances. Our daughter takes an oral antibiotic suspension daily , a 5 ml dose, more than once we have been charged 'full' price for things like being on vacation and running out , or camp needing a future supply in advance. There are work arounds and reimbursements, but not sure if the hassle for the consumer is necessary. I can imagine there are plenty of chemicals, meds that are at risk of being lost, flushed , spilled and having , god forbid, 60 days worth on hand would pose no threat or possibility of 'abuse'.
sorry , my rant , heh daughter going to camp
, just had to go through this , again
