and i'm not making much sense right now.
i'll write a big, inclusive post about the mail ordering system through merck soon. the runaround re: info was incredible! basically, there is no way to insure that one's script will be filled or refilled within the time needed. no insurance that a script for a stim (a cat. II which has to be mailed, Cannot be faxed) won't get lost in the mail. Or, more importantly, that the filled script won't get lost.
And, only one's Dr. can fax a script to them - a physical pharmacy has no role anymore. It's illegal in the U.S. for a third party to fax a script, and Merck is acting as the pharmacy now, even though one can't go into a "Merck Center" to get an emergency refill.
