Progress on problem 4!
Problem 4. T's bus route is getting longer and longer. He now gets
picked up at 6.15 am and gets home at 4.30 pm. He takes adderall XR for
attention issues. It lasts for 6-8 hours. If he takes it at 6 am it
doesn't last for the full day of school. I arranged for the school nurse
to give it to him at 8 am during homeroom. I sent in the bottle this
morning and she says she can't use it to dispense to him because the rx
label is in my name (because the people at Duane Reade are not detail
oriented, I guess; the px was written for T, not me).
Solution 4. Put the pills in an old px bottle that has T's name on it.
I have several. I also have leftover bottles from when we were testing
out the dosages, and there are 25 mg and 5 mg pills, I could send in one
of each and she could combine them. I can't just go ahead and get a new
rx filled right now because of Problem 5 (see below).
Yes, putting it in an old px bottle with T's name on it (which was supposed to contain the same drug/dosage) worked. Yay!
And I also figured out how to update a bunch of sw that wasn't working in Lion. Another yay! I'm beginning to feel better about this machine, whereas yesterday I was all, Damn, if I'd known about this beforehand I would have just bought a windows laptop and an iPad for half as much and called it a day.
