Can you call around to see who has the meds and transfer your script to that pharmacy for this month?

Did you get it worked out? I don't know what you take but guessing maybe Cogentin? If you weren't able to get it, take benadryl. It's not the same, but both are anti-cholenergics and it may help. The first time I had bad AP side effects, I honestly thought I had broken my neck. It was awful. But seriously, do try benadryl if you can't get it today or tomorrow, some of the mechanisms of action are the same.

Can you request the refill before you almost run out ? My Medication plan allows me to refill 3-4 days early.

It is the manufacturer that keeps running out. This happened last month too.

I got them today, it will just take a few days to get back into my system and I get relief from this freaking pain.

Glad to hear this. Was this cogentin? If so, read the post I did on Benadryl, in case this ever happens again. I've finally gotten good at calling a few days before I'm out and that way I have a window in case I'm having a rough stretch and not able to go out.

It is procyclidine, I tried benadryl and it did nothing.
