Most prescriptions are filled for a 30 day supply!. Your insurance won't cover it until a certain number of days have passed!. Normally, you can fill it once you have used 2/3 of the current prescription!. If you are willing to pay cash, I'll have no problem filling it early for you!. Most doctors do not dispense medications!. As soon as a pharmacy submits your claim, it'll say if it has been accepted or not!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Usually a doctor prescribes a month's supply of medication and the pharmacy gives you a month's supply!. They won't fill it sooner because they won't get paid!.That's why you should have all your prescriptions at the same pharmacy!. They get to know you; they know what medications you're taking and if there are any interactions; they are more agreeable to filling it a little earlier!. It can be very frustrating but better safe than sorry!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
