You wouldn’t pirate a medicine, would you?

    Man, in lots of places the you can’t even get the name brand so at least there’s that.

    I have heard, don’t know how true it is, that hospital pharmacies have first shot at the supplies so they’re less affected by stuff like this. For what that’s worth.

      For sure. It might be that my city has a regional hospital in addition to being pretty close to a much larger city with multiple hospitals. Also likely helps that the larger city nearby has an airport which UPS and Fedex (might also have others) hubs in it. Along with those shipping companies having big ground sorting/shipping facilities in the same city.

      I can currently roll with the prices as long as I can still get my meds. Just hoping that the generic versions are able to catch up next year.
