Re: Prescriptions:do we stock up
hi all,
talking of stock piling, from a practice nurses point of view....be careful you dont order your scripts too often cos they may refuse them...some computer systems tell the person who is printing them off 'this is being overused, please enter a reason'.....it may be queried
just a thought....sorry to be a bore!!

Re: Prescriptions:do we stock up

ozzy rules footy that we must attend and learn about so we can hold down a decent conversation, all the other sports we must watch on t.v for the same reason.

Mark (Baldbutts) has been searching to see if any past threads say if Medicare prescribes this for next to nothing or should we stock up now and take it en masse in the container as we get them for free here.
I have been watching this forum for a few weeks now-so fully expect a couple of answers telling us that Australia has the highest known cases of asthma & eczemza in the world so don't bother coming!
Any other answers will be greatly appreciated.
Hopefully post more soon

Dermaid is the brand I've got at the moment... 30g for $7.95 if that's any help... 1 per cent Hydrocortisone... this is the strongest a chemist will give you... Normally I need prescriptions, but I was caught short, it was a weekend, and had to rely on the chemist... it's the strongest which she could give me without a prescription
Plus just another point, I don't think you can stockpile, there are laws about bringing drugs into Australia, unless it's "just to get you by"... you can't bring in a container of medicine
cheers
