Hello, Is anyone around the North Texas area having trouble finding Pharmacies having MSIR pain meds. I am having trouble noone seems to be in stock and said they can not order. Is my Pharmacy just giving me the run around or others having trouble too. Thanks. Hugs

I'm sorry I don't live in your area but i have never been to a drug store that could not order a medicine that the doctor gave me. I believe your drug store is giving you the run around. :( Is there another drug store you can use? Can another drug store order it for you? For some reason they can not I would call the doctor and tell them you can't get it filled because know one will order it for you could he please if you bring that one back to him write you another kind of pain medicine that will help you. Good Luck and please let us know what happens. I hope you want be in pain until you can get your medicine grouphug

Hi I am not from your area. I have never heard of drug store saying that they cannot order medicine if they don't have it. do you have any cvs out there or walmart? they may be able to order it foryou. Let us know what you find out. Keep us posted.

You might give your doctor's office a call and ask them about a pharmacy that will fill your order.

Auntiedebbie, kissing dixiefireball, kissing and Donna, kissing Thank you for answering. What happened is the drug store I normally use said they only had half and would order the rest and give to me. I told them it is a Narc and would that be a problem and they said No. On the bottle it says "we owe 40" . So I waited a few days and called and now they have said they are disc. that drug and can not get it for me. I cannot believe that MSIR is being disc. I am allergic to most pain meds. They set off my seizures so I have to be real careful. Thanks again I hope you all are pain free today. Hugs

grouphug grouphug grouphug Something doesn't seem right there that they are discontinuing them. I hope that you didn't pay for your prescrptions. Please call your dr to see what pharmacy will fill it. Try walmart or cv. You are welcome. Let us know how you are doing.

HI LADIES,
What is MSIR?
Susan
redstonebef,
Have you tried calling the drug's manufactuer? Maybe you can do an Internet search or one of my favorite websites is www.rxlist.com. (http://www.rxlist.com.) I wish you the best of luck and hope your med isn't really being discontinued.

If you get on the phone and telephone other drug stores, you may be able to find one that will get your med for you. If you find one who can order it, give them the prescription number and the name of the pharmacy who partially filled the prescription. We changed pharmacies three years ago and that's the way we did it. The new pharmacy called the old one and had the prescription information sent over.
Hugs,
Donna

First of all the remaining amount they owe you should be called into a pharmacy that has them.
I am not at all surprised by this. CVS in my area will not carry narcotics. Rite Aid does. I believe it is all due to the robbies that have happened with Oxycontin.
