How does getting prescription medication go in countries other than the US? [I Use Prescription Drugs]
So for example, I see a neurologist for my seizure disorder, and he submits the refill to the CVS pharmacy that I use to have those pills refilled every month. I don't do the 3 months because its $120, vs. $40 a month, and I can't do generic, it has to be filled as the brand name medicine.
So I get a text notification from CVS telling me my prescription is ready for pickup. Then I drive over, give them my name and date at the counter, pay the $40 and I'm on my way out.
Does it pretty much work the same in places like the UK and Australia? Are certain types of medicine not available in all countries? Like just as an example, let's say there's two types of medicine I need, and one of those is Sample1, but in another country, they only have Sample2. Is it possible in the US we might have both Sample1 and Sample2, but in another country, they might only have Sample2?
