Is a dr allowed to stop your medication because you cannot afford to get as many epidermal shots as she wants you to get without lowering dosage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Yes, if your doctor feels another medication helps or that the medication is ineffective due to the cost-effectiveness, than they can try to help by substituting other meds.
