In reply to Can a psych tell if you are filling prescrips?, posted by MrLost on August 4, 2004, at 4:41:00
I am with Kaiser and my pdoc knows because everything is all computerized at Kaiser. My pdoc knows exactly when I refilled my RX and how many refills I have remaining. Of course, they would not know if you are actually taking them, but that would be a complete waste of money and time for both you and your pdoc, if you paid for the RX and then not take them.

> This is probably a stupid question, but I'm not familiar with the whole prescription filling process. I assume the pharmacy calls to verify that the prescrip is legit, but does the shrinks office make a note that you filled the prescrip?

Instead of disagreeing I just don't take the full amount prescribed, but at the same time I don't want to have to purchase what I'm not going to use. So my question is will she be able to see how often and how much of the prescriptions I actually decide to purchase?
