I have my recurring prescriptions filled 90 days at a time. I can refill them before the 90 days is up. I don’t know exactly how long before the 90 days, but it’s at least a week. If I wanted to hoard them, I could just pick them up at the earliest allowable date each time, and collect at least a week’s worth of pills each time.
Are you waiting until you run out before you refill? Find out how early you can refill, and do that.
You just reminded me. My Dr tells me to re-order two weeks before script runs out...to have some in case of delays...which has happened due to late delivery to pharmacy. But never more than 48 hrs.
