OKAY, HELEN’S STILL ON HER RESERVE SUPPLY OF TIKOSYN, AND THE WALGREEN’S PHARMACIST HASN’T EVEN CALLED BACK AS PROMISED: You’d think that a business people rely on for drugs they need to live would be more reliable, wouldn’t you?Helen is the wife of the Inspapundit, Glenn Reynolds.
UPDATE: Reader Chris Link, M.D., writes: “For God’s sake, it’s for cardiac arrhythmia. No urgency there.” Yeah, what’s wrong with these people?
I don't have any reserve supply for any of my meds. Have you ever gone in and had them give you a partial supply, because they are expecting the rest tomorrow? What if tomorrow is disrupted by a terrorist event or a hurricane that doesn't go were the weather guessers said it was going to go, or maybe just a huge train wreck (with your meds onboard)?

Yes, but my prescription can abused. It's Provigil.
Medicare/Medical Insurers policy aside, I have yet to suffer any stress over running out of meds. I have two pipelines for my medications, Express Scripts, and CVS. Both are marvelously good at putting your meds on auto-refill. When I've used my last refill, simultaneous with picking up (or receiving it in the mail) I get a query as to whether I would like them to renew my prescription...and they take care of all the hassle with that. Even with meds that can be abused.
It works so well that I fear that some bureaucrat will stumble on the fact and press into effect some rule that destroys the efficiency of the current system.
