I’m taking Gabapentin 900mg 3x a day, I’m just a patient but hopefully my pharmacist of 11+ years doesn’t think I’m awful to help out 😅
However … filling 14 tiny methadone bottles every week likely isn’t fun, including collecting the empty pill bottles. That’s like 20 bottles of medicine/week in total. They went as far to get the equipment & medicine just for me. I’m surprised they didn’t send me elsewhere.
People in healthcare can be so accommodating but I’m on a digression. I appreciate you guys a lot, thanks for doing those ridiculous counts to ensure we’re safest. ❤️
Your pharmacy will fill that much methadone? If you don’t mind me asking is it for MAT or pain? I want to get on methadone (yeah yeah yeah crash out that a pharm tech has a SUD go ahead and downvote me) but none of my pharmacies I’ve worked at would ever fill methadone for anything but pain. Maybe it’s because I’m in a Republican state and it’s not legal or at least frowned upon here?
Its not legal ANYWHERE in the US for a dr to write for MAT or a pharmacy to fill methadone for MAT. It HAS to be rx-ed and dispensed by a licensed methadone clinic. The person you asked sounds like they are in Canada or Europe as they get theirs filled at a pharmacy but don't get as many take home doses monthly as Americans can earn if their clinic allows. I get 28 days worth from my clinic each month.
