A member asked:

My doctor just put me in adderall that i filled last week. i want to ask to switch medications due to some side effects. if a script is written for a different adhd medication, will the pharmacy fill it even though the adderall was just filled?

Depends: This is sometimes more an insurance or pharmacy question than a medical one. Many pharmacists understand the process of starting these meds is a trial & error adventure. Some states may require more paperwork or a return of the prior prescription, but this is something a call to your pharmacist can sort out. Some insurers that cover meds may not do so for overlapping scripts. Contact the insurer.
