Lynda of Fredericksburg VA (4/20/04):
On refilling a prescription for pain, the bottle didn't look filled as the prior refill had. Sure enough after counting, I was 12 pills short. This month when I received my refill I counted again and was short 8 on this one. Two of my grandchildren are ADHD, one receives cylert, the other ritilan, my daughter counts the pills on the counter when she gets them. She said the pharmacy people get upset about this, but she has found a shortage of pills before.

I read about this before in a magazine, but never thought I had the need to count, that I could depend on my pharmacy. Needless to say, I have filled my last refill with this phamacy, others will be transferred to another and I will count them.
