Yes, they are illegal and so are PA's writing and signing the docs name on scripts for CIII's, but they still do it anyway.

If you ever have something to fill that you are worried would be a problem because of another prescription, then you need to go to a completely different pharmacy and when they ask if you have insurance, either say "no" or "yes, but I have to file for prescriptions myself".

The insurance company will flag for duplicate meds (filled too early) not if you get them with enough time between the fills and the pharmacist WILL call the doc and tell them.

Years ago when I was seeing a doc he gave me a script for hydro every month. I had gone through a very bad 3 weeks and told him that day and told him that I was out of meds before the month was over. I came to see him one week early because I was out of meds. Now I went to fill this at the very same place I had filled all his scripts and they were all from the same doc. The pharmacist there called the doc and told him when I had filled the last one and that it had only been about 21 days before. I still got it filled.

When I went back to the doc the next month, he told me about her call and said he told her he was very much aware of each prescription he wrote me, when he wrote them, how long they were supposed to last, etc. He also told her that if it had not been alright for me to fill the new prescription that day he would not have given it to me that day.

That was a Target pharmacy and that was the last time I ever did business with a Target pharmacy. If you get a prick for a pharmacist, then they can cause you all kinds of headaches.
