For a short while during the pandemic it was dicey getting my sleep meds but since I started with this pdoc in 2021 he’s been really good about it.


Could you maybe switch to a pharmacy that provides this service? I understand if you like your pharmacy tho.
Yes my pharmacy reminds me of refills, but not when there aren't any refills left.

So my pdoc prescribes 3 months at a time, and the auto refills work during that time. But on the last month, there's no refill available so it doesn't notify me. This is what happened to my Prozac and Remeron.
