Yesterday I went to get my prescription for Effexor filled.
mine is almost the same way but they tell me when I can get a refil done and say my dosage is up'd then I cant get a refil for the new dosage I have to double up on what I have then when the time comes they will give me a refil so I end up running out of meds too soon freaking out cause I dont have any calling in a fit and then after I end up looking like a lunatic they give me my refil what is wrong with these people they get their money eather way you look at it so what is the big deal.
Insurance companies really need to stop acting like gods I agree with you on that one totally and completly but there is nothing we can do for we are not gods just mere mortals.
take care

I can't really give you any advice because I don't live in the US.

Pamela,
Well, I guess even ticked off I still have a sense of humor!

something is wrong 75mg 2x a day is fairly common my daughter is on that much and is doing well so I don't know what the hell they are trying to pull. Speak with another pharmacist and see whats up~~~~~~~~Amy~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've had the same pharmacist for years.

As an aside, 225mg daily is the max dose recommended by the pharmaceutical company.
So I'm not sure how somethins like 150 (75 x 2) would be unusual, unless they considered Effexor too expensive. Even getting care at a MTF (military outpatient), I run into meds that they aren't allowed to prescribe at all, others that they limit to 8 weeks ('cause of cost) and still others that you have to get permission from the head of your medical department in order to prescribe.
Meds are the biggest cost for most insurance companies. Or in my case military treatment facility.

You think BlueCross sucks, just think of AEtna. It's an HMO, so most doctors don't accept it. The insurance company tells me which doctors i can go see. When I finally admitted to myself that I need therapy and tried to find a doctor, they sent me a list of doctors in my area. 6 out of 7 were not accepting new patients or simply did not pick up the phone. I finally had success with doctor office #7. Now what i have to think about is that they cover only 20 visits a year. Since i just started, I have to go at least once a week. Do they think i'm going to be cured exactly after 20 visits. Do they know something i don't?
