Hello @amandaburnett I have not asked my doctor to do anything because I know the pharmacy will give her problems. It will only give me ambien every 30 days no ifs and or buts. It refuses to give it to me until after it has gone through with my insurance. I will call Cigna and explain the matter to it. It will have the say over the pharmacy to get me any pills. Tomorrow I speak with my doctor. I'll call Cigna too.

Hello @amandaburnett! Cigna called the pharmacy and it said that the drug is a controlled substance so I had to call my doctor and have it call the pharmacy telling it about the loss of pills. When I told my nurse practitioner this she said she'd be in the red if she did that. She called the pharmacist a year ago saying I lost pills down the drain but she won't admit that. She did call a pharmacist. He said I could pick up the medicine two days early. At this point I'm one pill short. I'll have to go to the pharmacy sometime when I know a nicer pharmacist will be there so the Zolpidem can be filled either a day or two ahead.
