Subject: RE: Nibbs XXXVIArtemis - 2009-02-06 10:51 AM mchally - 2009-02-06 1:37 PM I think that I will go back to my old med. Why can't you get refunds for medications that don't work? I have spent thousands of dollars in my life on medications that just make things worse. That just seems wrong. I assume it's the standard liability stuff, but it would be nice. I have a ton of half-used prescriptions that I never take. Don't know what to do with them.
I think that there is a nonprofit program that will take extra meds and pass them on to people who have an Rx, but not the money. Then again, it might be an under the table operation... So many things have a satisfaction guarantee. It would be nice it the pharmaceutical industry would do something of the sort. I realize that it is not going to happen, but it is frustrating to put out money (that you don't really have) to get medications that do not work for you...or that screw you up. Some side effects cause long term damage. Maybe there could be some sort of compromise and the company could give you credit that can be applied to other meds that you are taking that they make.
