We just pass out narcs like candy on Halloween.
What is it about people needing scripts NOW?
Your doctor wrote this RX on the thirteenth. It is now the thirtyfirst. You have had that thing for two weeks. Your not thinking is not my emergency. Your MD screwed up, we can’t fill it.
Listen to this.
Duragesic 50mcg
Tk one patch every four days, alternating with Duragesic 75mcg. DAW, he takes a patch every other day.

Box is NOT marked DAW. doesn’t count if its typed into the directions. So sorry, your getting generic.
Now the thinking part. If you are changing patches q4d, how are you using one qod?
Just doesn’t work. q3d yes, q4d no.
Reminds me of a similar incident earlier this week. I get called monday. “Did Dr Whitecoat mail in my painkiller rx?” No.
Called Tuesday. Again, no. I’ll call you when I get it.
Calls wednesday. No I still haven’t gotten it. I will call you when I do.
Calls thursday. Again, no I don’t I will call you when I do.
Calls Friday. No, woman! I will call you the moment I open the envelope and see your name on it!
I get it saturday. I call her. She’ll be down whenever she gets around to it.
I look quick at the RX. It was written Thursday! ARRRGH!!!
Then I take a really good look.
Its IBUPROFEN 600mg!
AAAARRRRRRGHHHH!!!!!!
