I would contact the insurance carrier and ask them about their guidelines for filling a schedule narcotic such as oxycontin, some will allow a 3 month filling, while others will only allow a month to month refill on a new prescription each month. If they don’t help your insurance should have the phone number of a person,to contact, who is able to answer these questions for you.
This is all part of a crackdown by the federal government and drug agencies after Oxycontin, Methadone and Hydrocodone began showing up as drugs teens were using to get high and dying after taking lethal overdoses of them.
As a matter of fact Oxycontin has been nicknamed “Hillbilly Heroin”, because of the ease of obtaining it, compared to other drugs such as Marijuana or Heroin, and is cheaper than these drugs as well.
That is why people who are legitimately using these medications for injures and illnesses are being punished for the deeds of the people thaat want these drugs to sell for either profit or getting high on them themselves.
