Default Schedule 2 pharmacy procedure

Hi I'm wondering what the pharmacy procedure is on a written script for percocet? Do they confirm with physician every time?

Just warning: bad idea to drop anything on this forum if you're looking for advice to start using. A lot of the people here are trying to quit.

So I get my Vyvanse filled at Wallgreens. The first couple of times, they waited on a reply from my Doc. I'm thinking that means that legal procedure for schedule II is to confirm the perscription every time.
The last few times I've gone in with prescriptions, they've fililed it on the spot. I know that the pharmacist doesn't know me by face... so it's also possible that the computer keeps track of previous consumption.

So.. from my experience, yes for the first fill. It's free beyond that hurdle.

Don't even think about altering a Rx. They DO check with doctors everytime! There is so much pain killer abuse now that they are on their toes to catch everyone! Don't do it!!! Way too many problems WHEN you are caught! Minimum of $600.00 fine, 300 hours community service, minimum of 6 months probation and it will be on your record FOREVER!!! You will never get a decent job and it is a horrible thing to carry around the rest of your life! I am not scolding, I want to help you!

they are suppose to send the scripts for schedule II (which percocets would be classified under) back to the MD that wrote the script, so pretty much unless the mess up or forget to send it which would get them in a lot of trouble

And you gathered that from where? who?

A Pharmacist *does not* have to verify every CII prescription.. If the Pharmacist suspects a fake, forgery, or a fraudulent Rx then they will investigate it.

If you have a Rx from an OUT-OF-TOWN Doctor, then be smart, drop if off while that office is still open so the Pharmacist can verify it.. we see *ALOT* of possible fakes come in for CII's and we are always cautious about it when the person drops it off late on a Friday night.. or if they are shaking and looking around suspiciously..
