" think the biggest problem for many people is to have an extra month of meds on hand. I don't think the doctor would write an extra prescription. Heck, it's probably illegal in most cases. Does anyone have any info about that? "
You need to register your meds at a national or regional pharmacy like CVS or Walgreens. You can then get your meds filled anywhere. One of the biggest lessons learned in Katrina-Rita-Wilma was that people who used local banks, insurance agents, pharmacies, etc were unable to access their records after evacuating and went through unnecessary hardship. Of course it is a good idea to record the numbers of your prescriptions and bank accounts etc and put them in your evac bag just in case.
My bf uses Savon, which I believe is being bought out by CVS. I do keep up on threads like these, because I believe that I have to do my part in taking care of myself. My worry is that large pharmacies might be unable to conduct business for an extended period of time.
Lol, I guess if that happens, everyone who takes meds is SOL, eventually....
