ARGHHH! Trying to get my pharmacy to STOP sending drugs

When the fact that I was having “absence seizures” earlier this year was revealed, the doctor prescribed a drug to control those seizures. I am grateful for that. It seems to work very well.

All good.

But the mail order pharmacy appears to think I take this prescription 10 times a day, even though it’s twice a day.

I just was notified they were going to send it again. I already have three unopened bottles and half of another. The labels fade fast until it just looks like yellowish paper - unreadable.

A very pleasant customer service lady explained repeatedly what was happening. I KNOW what’s happening. That’s why I called.

She did agree, reluctantly, to stop the most recent bottle until I ask for it.

That only took twenty minutes.

I am grateful for the medication but there can be too much of a good thing.

Might be nice to keep an extra bottle on hand in case there’s ever an emergency that delays meds for some reason. When my folks’ town flooded it was a stressful scramble to get their meds without interruption.

@Mamapolo2016 oh no I definitely understand and hope you can slow em down - just thought staying one bottle ahead might be good. Good luck! Mine sent me two bottles every time I refilled for some reason. Took me a year to get em to quit that. lol
@JustNik They are not good listeners.
@JustNik An extra bottle, maybe... but she's heading for an extra sixty bottles...

Wish my pharmacy was like that!! Take good care there .....:)
And I can't get the NHS to agree to keep supplying me with folic acid for my B12 deficiency...

What medication is it? Maybe you can sell it
@Mamapolo2016 your life of a criminal is like chicken soup for the soul. You have impeccable timing and fantastic sense of humor.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
@Briggett Thank you, sweet Briggett.

I hope you too have blessed holidays!
@Briggett I was just wondering Class III 😂
