Prescriptions on the road
My husband has to take strong painkillers for his back problem. How do you travel more than one month and get your medicines refilled? Especially in other states? We live in Texas.

Check with your pharmacist first.
Now when I was stuck for years in Georgia I used a "Local" chain, but now that I'm back on the road again I use Wal*Mart... National and they will call and fetch the script from my last store... SEE WARNING BELOW.
Some National chains (Wallgreens I THINK does this) use a central comptuer so all of their stores have your script. Check to be sure.
The warning: I DO NOT take narcotics.... Thus Rules may be differnet on narcotics.
info only
The rules for narcotics vary but generally Escribe must be to the exact pharmacy you will be using so if Walgreen's has 2 pharmacies in a town only the exact one it is prescribed to can fill it.
We lived with these rules since 2010 and are very familiar with them
