Does anybody else have problems getting their prescriptions filled every month? Walgreens is the worst. There is always something missing.

I ran out of Oxy today, and so did they. Monday, after 3, they say.

Members shared their frustrations about getting prescriptions filled on time, with many pointing to Walgreens and CVS closures, staff shortages, and frequent stock issues as common problems. Several members offered helpful alternatives, including switching to local independent pharmacies, Walmart, or mail-order services like CenterWell Pharmacy, with one member praising a local pharmacy that packages and hand-delivers all 14 of their medications monthly. A recurring theme was the importance of contacting your doctor quickly when a pharmacy runs out, so scripts can be moved to another location before medications run out completely.

We use a small independently owned pharmacy that is incredible in their quality of service. When Clonozepam.5 mg seemed to be on back order everywhere they substituted .1 mg with my neurologist’s permission and I split them. Since I am immobile they will also put together otc products for my husband or son to pick up. Their pharmacists are knowledgeable and always available to answer questions. We are fortunate indeed.

I'm just throwing this out there. Why do we seem to have a lot of responses to posts that do not relate to that issue?
