alizae Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Do you ever have problems remembering to pick up your scripts for medication? I usually always manage to get lots of scripts (even for sedatives/anti-anxiety/sleep aids), but I never really pick up anything. I must have at least over 10 scripts in my pharmacy waiting for me. Most of them are probably several months old. I even have refills on refills waiting for me! There is just never time to go to the pharmacy. How do people actually pick up their meds? The pharmacies never open early enough and I never get home from work before they close. And they are usually closed on weekends (even though I'm usually working those days too).

Dani Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Most pharmacys offer a collection/delivery service Plus you can speak to your doc about putting ur meds in sync so Your collecting everything together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow girl Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 You might be able to have them delivered. It's worth asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanta Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Having them delivered will be a good option for you. I use the express service at my pharmacy.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skp67 Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 I still have to pick mine up daily and see the gp three times a week so he can see i havent harmed or anything. Do you have a dog? Just wondering as if you do could you combine it with walking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alizae Posted October 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 No, I don't have a dog (thank God for that...he/she would get too lonely and die...) The problem is that pharmacies are always closed when I want to pick up the meds. (No pharmacies want to stay open after 11PM simply because I want that.) I'm rarely "out doing chores" during day-time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donnam Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 what about collecting them in your lunch break? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alizae Posted October 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Been doing that sometimes, but it's like 30 min walk....But yes, that's a solution should use more regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
