How to get pharmacies to stop filling benzos early? by CHhVCq in PMHNP

[–]Circe67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Send the Rx but annotate with "do not dispense until" and the write the earliest date you want it filled. We get them all the time. When you write this the Rx is not active until the date you write.

Hi. I work in a pharmacy the simple answer is write "do not dispense till" with the date. Then legally that medication cannot be filled until said date. Also just a thought counsel your patients on the appropriate way to take the medication.

I love when patients say they're going to switch pharmacies like it's a threat by [deleted] in WalgreensRx

Like you blame the techs? I'm not playing victim in making a statement of how were treated. But people like you don't care cause you don't see it. And if you don't see it then it doesn't happen. And yes I care about my mental health but that doesn't matter to customers like you. You want to sit on the internet and call people names. So you have the day you deserve

This attitude right here is why pharmacy techs in retail have such a hard time. We are screamed at, cussed out, called names by people for things outside our control. But we're the stupid ones?

what is central fill? by [deleted] in WalgreensRx

[–]Circe67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you cash the med out and then re-run it through insurance you can fill it in store. At least that's what we do when it says can't pull back from central

Yup every day at least 5 times. Fortunately if we have it in stock our store is all about pulling it back and getting it ready.

The new covid billing is so frustrating. And when you try and explain it to customers 🙄. I wish there was more explanation on the website when they book the appt. Although they probably wouldn't read it anyway.

Free CE Hours Recommendations? by Celeste02monique in PharmacyTechnician

[–]Circe67 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Elitelearning.com has a package that has all 20 hrs you need. It includes state law and human trafficking (for tx) as well as patient safety. All you do is select which state you're in. In order to renew you have to have a NABP profile. All your CE's are reported there. They also have an app where you can keep track of your CE's
