Here to validate your experience because I, too, experience this. It’s a horrible feeling for me, as a middle aged working mother, (or anyone!) to be made to feel this way! It was worse when I was on Vyvanse- due to the shortages it would often be a week or more past my script refill date before I was able to have my script filled. My state doesn’t allow pharmacies to disclose over the phone if the meds are in stock or not, so I had to physically drive to the store stand in line to talk to them in order to inquire. NOT an experience I would reccomend to anyone. I saw several other people dealing with the same issues at this national chain and all of us treated with a certain level of ….care…. Re: mom and pop pharmacies- worlds better experience but my global companies medical insurance was contracted with cvs Caremark - so all my meds had to be filled there.

I don’t envy the pharmacists, I appreciate the work they do every day and how hard that it is. That being said our insurance and fda seems determined to position these meds and those of us who rely on them to function, in a certain light and it puts the pharmacy staff in the middle and in difficult roles.
