Hi all - this is somewhat of an old thread but I started having issues with Walgreens this year - after years of smooth sailing getting the 7% solution covered by Medicare. Walgreens insisted that Medicare only covered a specific generic version made by Nephron but I was told elsewhere that I needed something like albuterol in order for it to be covered. It seems there is a shortage of the Nephron version as well.
I am wondering if anyone else is having this issue and if they were able to solve it.

No problem recently with them, I do not get my Levalbuterol Rx through them, so I fear that is yet another misunderstanding of the rules...
They fill with whatever generic version is available to them - even filled with Pulmosal one time.
