Try a small independent pharmacy. Walgreens stopped selling prescribed opioids in their pharmacy. When my husband, who suffers from failed back surgery went to several CVS’s to ask if they could fill his monthly prescription, they said they had a limit of customers who they can fill opioid prescriptions for and that limit had been met. My husband’s doctor called a friend who owns his own small pharmacy. The pharmacist said “Yes,” he could fill my husband’s monthly prescriptions.

@felicelinda CVS is one of the worst places to get an opioid prescription filled. I was even told this by my doctor. I use a smaller pharmacy where the staff knows me well (10 years now). They greet me with a smile and the only problem I have is manufacturing shortages. Best to you!
