Oh, Lorrie, I do hear you! The gov't. has its fingers into everything ... they think they know better what is good for us than our very own doctors ..... at my age it's absolutely infuriating! Part of my med. routine is Klonapin - 1 mg. AM, 1/2 mg. at night. I can only get 30 at a time, and I cannot pick them up at the Rx until the day I take the last pill! HOLY COW! What do they think I'm going to do with them? I can just see it now ..... a 71 year old lady (admittedly with an attitude) standing on a corner selling Klonapin one at a time to drug addicts for $30 a pill! How absurd!
It's time the doctors took over our care and get it out of the government's hands!

Abby, I order Klonopin through my supplemental insurance company's mail order, and receive a 90 day supply. I take 1mg at bedtime, and 1 other when I need it for anxiety. I rarely take the second one, so a 90 day supply lasts up to 6 months. My morphine sulfate contin is another story. I have to get a fresh prescription from the doctor every month, and hand deliver it to the pharmacy. Managing meds can be a real challenge.
