Nvm found my answer.  Was prescribed x amount, insurance only filled a week worth, about half what was prescribed. I think next time I just need to tell pharm I will pay out of pocket and not use insurance

@cowboys32 that's exactly what I had to do. My insurance would only pay for a week's worth and it's not worth having to go every week. Just be sure they take the insurance off, tell them you don't have it anymore because I had problems with my refills when they kept trying to put it through my insurance after I told them I would self pay.

"Is my prescription ready? No your insurance says that you have exceeded the amount they will cover". Hopefully you can avoid that hassle.

It's just another way for insurance companies to try and cheat us out of what should be covered. They know that many people are not going to try to pick up their monthly prescription every week.

 
Your doc can contact insurance and let them know it’s medically necessary to receive full 30 days of Rx due to patient needs. Only issue would come from regulatory limits on controlled substances, but usually that’s at minimum no more than a 30 day supply per Rx.  Your doc might find this easier on his/her workload as well, and should be interested in limiting unnecessary hassle and barriers to treatment for his/her patients.

It's easier to say s3lf pay. Use G00d Rx for discount coupon and shows where lowest s3lf pay is

That's true. Sometimes you gotta stay off the record and free the restraints of insurance policies, etc. For the long term, and for people who can't afford certain meds, it's a good idea to simultaneously explore the avenue of getting insurance to work for you and pay.

  2. Finger-of-God @ Finger-of-God: u5ps handles our shipments just fine. 200+ daily, just have to split them up to different locations.
  3. The Doctor RC @ The Doctor RC: Well you know UxPx can't handle the amount of priority mail and FDX is having trouble with business so now they help UxPx handle like a certain percentage of priority mail as far as transportation from location to location
  4. L @ Layne_Cobain: UessPess tracking is agonizingly stupid 😬 😥
  5. O @ ochemdim: Agreed, apologies all. But at the same time I’ve seen articles about spray bottles that are very expensive. Paying more for less when it comes down to it. I think we should help each other out , but this may not be the spot to discuss this topic, you’re right about that
  6. L @ Layne_Cobain: @ochemdim good stuff as always bro
  7. Dr-Octagon @ Dr-Octagon: See round like a donut
  8. N @ necromedic: @ochemdim : definitely will. I feel like we should have started a thread about this. Apologies, @Admin if this was improper use of the box. Please purge, if necessary.
  9. O @ ochemdim: @necromedic ah ok interesting! Let me know what the researchers find out. The hypothesis makes sense, only thing I’d be wary of is the irritability of VG, and keep in mind, when VG and HCł are mixed, chlorôhýdrín is produced which is very irritating but that’d have to be pretty strong HÇł I believe and just washing before hand will rid the excess HÇł
  10. N @ necromedic: @ochemdim : anecdotally, especially with the way other people have prepared them with just distilled H2O and maybe EtOH or BA for sterility, I would definitely agree, and I’ve wondered if that it’s due to the speed of drainage with such a low weight solvent. That’s why I’ve experimented with adding VG to increase viscosity to let it hang in the NM a little longer. Possibly more diffusion/osmotic pressure with a dry vs hydrated medium?
  11. O @ ochemdim: @Royboy88, @Layne_Cobain, @necromedic in a couple research papers I’ve read, they always found that the sprays had lower absorption rates compared to traditional. I could be wrong but I’d research it if I were doing a study and needed references
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: @Royboy99 never got to try one of those saline sprays but a snuff bullet is a great compromise love mine Amazon has good ones for cheap
  13. N @ necromedic: @Royboy99: I’ve just held on to one, rinse it with EtOH and refill with saline and VG. You can find the devices, dirt cheap, on a lot of sites.
  14. ms3031 @ ms3031: Anyone ever tried MDBD?
  15. R @ Royboy99: Since C and R are gone sadly are there any vendors that offer ❄️ (c) misters , those were so convenient
  16. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Yeah, be smart, do your research.
  17. M @ meepmoopmeep: is it the high prices from dropshippers? i tend to avoid the obvious dropshippers for that reason
  18. M @ meepmoopmeep: @PlainPasta sorry, but I’m not understanding the issue at hand
  19. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Depends what you're looking for.
  20. P @ PlainPasta: If this is website of sellers who order off the dark web for a premium. We expect a premium back too
