Seems to me like there should be some room for conversation here, instead of just a high handed "do what we say or we'll make you" approach. I would think they would want to empower you to make wise choices, not force their decisions on you.

Could you and your husband talk to the group T AND supervisor and suggest that your husband keep the pills safe for you until your p-doc is available to address the concerns? T's are not experts on meds, the p-docs are...that's why it's the p-doc that can prescribe them.

Personally, a high handed approach like this would just make me mad and I'd fight it...but that's just me. I hate being told what to do and not given a choice.
