Son has crone's disease - takes 500 mg of depakote. (twice a day) He left for VA and prescription fell out of bag - lost. Just had it filled b4 leaving. State assistance ended today, worker is on vacation until 7/7/08. Needs another review. He went to clinic and told they can't refill because he just got it and you have to wait 30 days. Pills stop seizures. Just in hospital b4 getting these pills. No money (over $250 for them) to get refill. Can he not get it refilled at all...anywhere? What is he to do????
Call his doctor and explain the situation, if it is a drug that isn't abused then it shouldn't be a big problem. Otherwise it probably depends on your relationship with the doctor.
Thank you so very much for the answer. I will do that first thing in the morning when the office is opened. It is not a drug that is abused. Praying there will be no problem. His relationship, I think, is well with the doctors. Thank you again - Bless!
Call the state for assistance ask to speek to the superviser and explain what happened and if they don't help go to te hospial and they shold be able to help or go to your town assistance and they should be able to help. Good luck!!!!!!!
