Schedule 2 drug and Full Timing
I just read that "they" are making one of my daily meds a schedule 2 drug which means I can only get a 3 month supply and then I need to see my Dr. again for a new prescription. How am I going to do ...

Your physician may write post-dated prescription for you to take along and have filled each month. However: (This is a very big however) if the pharmacist is not comfortable filling a post-dated prescription since continuing medical care is not indicated by the out-of-state prescription, the prescription will be refused.
if the doctor writes say four Rxs that are dated 3 months apart, and the patient goes into the pharmacy and hands in a current one, why would the pharmacist automatically think they were post dated?

Scenario: you hand me a prescription with good dating written by a doctor in Ohio. Since I have no knowledge of you or the doctor I will/must call the doctor and verify the prescription. I will be told the doctor wrote the prescription last month for your travel. Now I must decide if I want to take FULL responsibility that the medication is for legitimate medical use. The stores I occasional substitute at would reject the prescription. sorry.
