I have a prescription for Ubrelvy. 16 pills per month. The first time I filled at Walgreen's, but my normal pharmacy is CVS. Last week I went to pick up my prescription at CVS and they would only give me 10. They stated that they could not break a new box open. Apparently, it comes 10 to a box. I want to make sure that CVS is not charging you for 16 pills when I only got 10. I will be transferring back to Walgreen's because of this. It makes me wonder how many other drugs they are doing this with. This is CVS located inside of Target on Millerville Rd in Baton Rouge, LA
Your company has been so generous to me by providing financial assistance with this drug that I otherwise would not be able to access. It does wonders for my migraines.
Shorted on prescription of Ubrelvy at pharmacy?

I live in the Acadiana area of LA. My pharmacy has never broken a box.
My doctor had to rewrite my prescription for the quantity in the box of 10 as that’s all that pharmacies will fill. She originally wrote for 12, my insurance even balked as BC/BS of LA will only pay for a package of 10 per month. Fortunately, my copay is only $5 a month. Hope this helps someone.
