Hello Everyone,
I got a script for pain of oxycodone, my first script was 10mg every 4 to 6 hours. First let me say I NEVER take more than my dose. I was running low and my doctor is far away in LA, so he gave me another prescription to get filled. Once I went home and tried to get them filled they said it was too soon. Yes I still had some pills left but how is it too soon? Had I been taking one every 4 hours every 4 hours I'd been out.
Now This new script is 5mg oxycodone 2 pills every 6 hours. I've been taking 6 pills a day a total of 30mg per day, I have got my back out of line and is making me have to take them every 6 hours. I also have cancer and my low platelets cause things to bruise easy and hurt a lot worse for longer. My script was filled on 2/3/18 it's now 2/ 15/18 I have around 35 pills left. As he gave me 100 5mg pills 2 every 6 hours. My fear is running out and even though I'll have no problem getting a new script from my doctor, the pharmacy might say it's too soon.
My question is how is it too soon if I'm taking them as directed. Right now I take 6 pills daily.when I could be taking 8 which would be 2 every 6 hours around the clock. Anyone have this problem, also my insurance doesn't cover my meds because they only cover up to 60 pills, or something like that, so I pay the full price every time I get them filled. Which has only been twice in my life time.
