Refilling Darvocet Early?
Question by Kiki R: Refilling Darvocet Early?
My doctor wrote me a 30 day prescription for darvocet for my severe fibromyalgia pain. 3 a day basically. I had a particularly bad flare up and had to take 1 and a 1/2 about 4-5 times a day to just get through it (I know, I should have called and asked, but I’d been told by this doctor before that I could do that). I’m about out, and I called to ask the pharmacy when I could get it filled, and she said no earlier than Nov. 21, which is exactly 30 days after I had it filled. But I’ve gotten my refill a week or so early before on other occasions. I talked to my doctor, and he doesn’t want to refill it early, and wants to try physical therapy instead. But, I’m in a lot of pain, and while I can handle it now, I don’t know if I can take it for two more weeks. And I can’t really afford physical therapy.
What Is the Real Definition of an Alcoholic?
Question by Becca: What is the real definition of an alcoholic?
Just because I drink now and then, people call me an alcoholic. I thought the definition was someone who can’t give up drinking. I can.
If I can drink, but can stop whenever I want, am I an alcoholic?
If you’re not obssessed with drinking, and could swap it for orange juice when you wanted to, would you call that an alcoholic? Even though you still drink?

Need Help in Business Law?
Question by SKA=<3: Need help in business law?
Can anyone answer this question? I need to know why and from where the answer came from.
Mcl aughlin injured his back while working as a lumberjack. He became
addicted to pain killers during treatment for the injury. He was then treated for
the addiction three times, but never stopped using the drug. When he moved to
Indiana, he sought treatment for his back injury and obtained a prescription for the
pain killer. He filled the prescription much faster than prescribed. In one 60-day
period he received 24 refills, filled 12 times, meaning that McLaughlin or his wife
was at the pharmacy every two to three days. When his doctor discovered the
misuse, he refused to prescribe more. McLaughlin became depressed as a result
of withdrawal and attempted suicide. He sued the pharmacy, claiming it had a
duty to stop filling the prescription because the pharmacist knew or should have
known that McLaughlin was consuming the drug so quickly that it was a threat to
his health. Is he correct?
Can Someone Give Me an Overview of How a Drug Treatment Is Supposed to Be Like?
Question by ashlie dh: Can someone give me an overview of how a drug treatment is supposed to be like?
I mean, guidelines or principles that a drug treatment program must abide by. Surely there are stuff such as this so that they’ll know how to handle different cases. I would just like to know them. Thanks.

Yes, there are indeed guidelines and principles that must be taken into account before experts devise a treatment program. These are also factors that individuals must take into account before going into, or sending a loved one into a drug rehab program.
