So the lovely state I reside in has implemented new dispensing laws effective July 1st as follows:

The biggest change has to do with how much of a drug you can get and when. Under the new law, pharmacists can only partially fill a prescription for no more than half of the number of days it’s written for. And there are limits on prescriptions, too: General prescriptions are limited to a 10-day supply (and no more than 500 cumulative morphine milligram equivalents). Prescriptions after surgery are limited to a 20-day supply (maximum 850 cumulative MMEs). “Medical necessity” prescriptions are limited to a 30-day supply (maximum 1,200 cumulative MMEs). This law technically takes effect July 1, but it won’t be mandated until Jan. 1, 2019, to give pharmacies a chance to update their software.

Some prescriptions are exempt from the requirements and limits, though doctors must still write a diagnosis code and “exempt” on them: Prescriptions for people who are getting palliative cancer treatment or hospice care; who have sickle cell disease; who are inpatients at licensed facilities; who are seen by doctors who meet the state requirements to be “pain management specialists”; who were treated with opioids for 90 days or more; who have severe burns or “major physical trauma”; and who are on methadone, buprenorphine or naltrexone, which are drugs used to assist recovery from addiction.

I guess things are going to get interesting, and not in a good way. 

 
I’ve had 9 surgeries on my abdomen. I’ve worked hospice for 15+ years and seen and felt the horrors of the misinformed, brainwashed medical industry. No more doctors or their BS for me. I will do whatever it takes to see to that!

Hi Never2....I've heard that this partialing out pain meds was only for CVS, and maybe new scripts at that. Fortunately, I've been years with a non-chain mom  & pop; I think it's the big chains that are worried over their "reputations"?? Maybe PM me about what state you live in.

Hang in there!

 
The lovely state of FL has implemented these BS laws on 7/1.  Its gonna cause more harm then good.  PPl will seek out meds in other ways. I have no doubt the amount of fent OD/Deaths will rise from this.

 
Well from what I have seen so far, this has more effect on those seeking new prescriptions and less on those already prescribed- It seems the State is trying to prevent new prescriptions from being written to those that have not been prescribed meds in the past.

 
Has anyone noticed, which I know we all have, these new Rx laws they’ve put on docs has caused a bigger problem than was before the DEA/FDA started restricting the meds.

 
@bdrc36...just had a girlfriend of mine die two weeks ago from all the dirty hairon going around. They said her heart looked like cobwebs and cauliflower had attached to it from the sepsis. It was sad too see her go from someone who would get herself looking nice six months ago to last time I saw her, couldn’t even look at me.

Hey man. I just wanted to say that I'm sorry to hear about your girlfriend. I too have lost a very close friend to this horrible heraon plauge. She was in almost the exact same condition as your girlfriend except there was broccoli on her heart and not cauliflower. I cannot stand this awful epidemic of dirty haeron. And it doesn't look like there's and there's no end in sight!

 
That law blows. It’s already bad enough my state requires paper rx for benzos and opiates. But we’re still allowed to get 3 month supplies so I’m gonna consider myself lucky

“And then all the people heard a “yeeee haaaawww” from the h dealers across town....”

The truth is truly stranger than fiction.

hey man just wanted you to know I've been there- even tho this thread is over a year old, actually the timeline matches up for my experience-Sept '18 my ex died the same way. he was such a lovely person and a lost soul. it broke my heart to see how far he'd fallen, yes because that drug is cheaper than buying the script pk on the st when you cant get it from your MD anymore. I myself can't even get zofran for my migraine nausea without the 3rd degree because apparently its now secondarily being abused to curb the sickness of getting high or withdrawing so it is being monitored. my sincerest condolences for your loss.

  1. Dr-Octagon @ Dr-Octagon: Dammit man
  2. M @ Mammasboi123: @Stevienixonn shout box is for non-vendor related convos IIRC. There’s a section of the forum for suggesting kratom vendors specifically. Check it out! Some great options in there.
  3. L @ Layne_Cobain: @Stevienixon cnc I believe
  4. T @ Tucker: Sorry @ dspring01, I just read your message wrong. No worries. 👍. Tried sending you a direct message but wouldn’t allow me. Maybe im at my limit, not sure. Good luck bud.
  5. D @ dspring01: @Tucker - I am sorry. What was your question?
  6. Stevienixon @ Stevienixon: Trying to find 7oh
  7. T @ Tucker: Hey @dspring01 what’s up with the sad looking face when asked where shipped too? Just asking
  8. F @ fyjclol: Scroll back & read it. Or read what he said on his thread.
  9. Saturnmeds @ Saturnmeds: What happened to calfresh? Someone stole his crypto?
  10. B @ bigblueallda: That sucks @CalFresh do you think it was an inside job? Or someone that knew.
  11. crimp @ crimp: do you live in a dangerous area maybe try moving to the country when you get back on your feet you seem to understant crypto beter then me so youll be on your feet in no time
  12. crimp @ crimp: do you live in a dangerous area maybe try moving to the country when you get back on your feet you seem to understant crypto beter then me so youll be on your feet in no time

  14. CalFresh @ CalFresh: Thanks everyone. My family and I are safe ATM. @mellowella thank you, but they cleaned me out. the shelves are empty but I'm hoping to call in some favors to restock ASAP. @xenxra I will reach out to set up a secure comms channel for us. Thanks again all. Yesterday was tough, but the support I've received from those I can share is with has been a Godsend.
  15. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Mad love to you and your family @CalFresh
  16. xenxra @ xenxra: @CalFresh if you are able to DM me (in a secure manner) the transactions associated with your btc theft, i can look into that part for you at least. i;m still 99% certain if the fbi didn't discard my leads they could have gotten some of my coins back and considering you had your coins stolen within the us, you have a much better chance of recovery than me. unless they went through mixers i could probably trace them myself.
  17. O @ Outsider9173: @CalFresh Haven't been here long but I want to wish you a fast recovery
