Well, at my pharmacy that I am now forced to use your doctor sends in the (typically incorrect) prescription(s), you don't get called when you're ready you just call every morning until they say it's ready, then you get down there and they say "we have a question for the nurse." Then you walk around the city for two hours, go back, ask if it's done, and they say "five minutes."
And with ACT it's even more complicated. Like I just found out yesterday they picked up my meds then today dropped them back off at the pharmacy. Soo if I hadn't been on ACT I could've picked them up yesterday myself and started the Lamictal today but now I have to wait until tomorrow.
