I thought ok, makes sense, getting to the older side of life. Check with the pharmacy, nope, it's been on hold for 6 months without a fill. Call her PCP's office, yep, same strength, sig, and physician's name on file at Walgreens. <br /><br />Sigh...people can never get things straight, can they?Rx Internhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05151838382707567818noreply@blogger.com
