   I have Lung issues and use Inhalers(3) different ones.  I have been trying to get one re-filled..  Express Scripts kept canceling my New scripts citing the need for   a Pre-Authorization," which two different Doctors submitted.  Express Scripts still canceled,then sent me ADVAIR.  Being a good patient I started using(inhaling) ADVAIR as presribed after 5 days use I became so short of breath and wheezy I went to ER and wound up in I-CU for two days.  Almost immediately after getting back on SYMBICORT I startrd breathing better.  I am now Charted as having Adverse re-actions to ADVAIR and am waiting for Symbicort to arrive in my mailbox.Thats my story and Iam sticking to it..

Great suggestion.  Even if you have health insurance..if I understand the VA will cover your pharma needs if you can produce a physician script....without seeing their doc.  You need to have some rated disability...and might have to pay a small copay....   don't think it would apply, but I have also found drugs at Costco (no membership required), Walmart, and Target cheaper than the insurance copay...they all have different lists of drugs they discount...so you gotta research on line.  If you have Obamacare..most all generics are no copay. ..stay healthy, smile  alot....it will worry everbody
