Where can I find a prescription for Qsymia? I have blue cross of Louisiana
I’ve taken Qsymia before my doctor stopped prescribing it. I have since gained 40+ pounds from not taking it. I would like to be able to get back on track with the help of Qsymia.
I am seeking help in weight loss, l have health insurance but have been unable to find a prescribing physician.
Yes
The insurance provider may be able to help with that, also the manufacturer may also be able to help, but no one can tell a Dr what to prescribe, in the end, that's up to them. I'm sure the product is available to any Dr who wants it, so it may be some other issue, especially when we go in wanting a specific medication, most Drs will shy away because they want to make that choice for us, so that's another angle is not to ask for anything specifically, give the Dr a chance to get to know you and your needs and it may lead right where you think it should go, or someplace even better.
I think the question was, "Does anyone have a list of doctors who are prescribing Qsymia?" meaning, can I find out which doctors are trying this drug already. I certainly don't want to beg a doctor to write a script for this. If I can go see a doctor that knows enough about it and has prescribed it... that is what I would want.
