I went to the FDA's website and they have given their approval on tons of drugs for import from India. That is FDA approved. But I couldn't find Seroquel because their site is so weird. I couldn't find a list of approved drugs..give me a list!
I like my pharmacy and the manager and it's close by and there's hardly ever a wait. I won't ask him to match Costco but I'm going to tell him that I could push this right up the food chain. I know how to raise a stink. It would get to the VP of pharmacy because retail wise, I think I would eat the district managers lunch. I don't know much but I know retail. But it would come back to my pharmacist and he's good and I know him pretty well. I don't want that to happen.
But! I've done him a few favors. I picked up 4 scripts there one time and they were in the same bag with receipts stapled on the outside. They were stapled on top of each other but(I just woke up and it's going to take an hour to write this and I can't think of the word) ok, staggered so you could see them. The new clerk only charged me for the first one. I called 'Frank' and said hey man I don't want to get this girl fired but your system is almost set up for this to happen. He gave me a good discount the next time. I never saw her again. If that was my first time at that pharmacy I wouldn't have done that. But it wasn't and I didn't want them looking at $110 shortage. Maybe I'm too nice or too honest but we all have our faults. :)
I don't want to buy a Costco membership but I would still be hundreds of dollars ahead. Not sure if I already said this but Costco obviously a big respected company. I don't think that they would source a drug out of Iraq :) and put a customer at risk because if someone died, it would cost then millions of $ just for lost business and the lawsuit. Hopefully they aren't that stupid. I wish I knew the generic mfg and what NOR stands for.One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.
