Is there a pharmacy that will buy back my leftover meds?

The doctor prescribes it of course. RN cannot prescribe.

If you buy from Ambulatory Pharmacy in Rockville, they will take back medication (that does not require to be refrigerated) and refund you. I returned a couple of Ganirelix

I know the doc prescribes, but I thought maybe the nurse decided to order, say, 40 vials instead of 30.

Nope, but it does work the other way around. I always asky nurse to order extra because I end up running out early.

I think it's the nurse figuring out how much to order. In my experience, the doctor decides an initial dosage, then the nurse makes a guess at the total based on that.

Sell it online. It's not like the DEA is staying up worrying about fertility meds.

I just posted in your other thread, but OP unless you are pregnant there is a chance you will need the meds again. I wouldn't give them away just yet.

+1

We thought we wouldn't need extra and experienced a loss at 17 weeks. I'd hang onto them.

OP if you do another cycle, don't buy all the meds at once unless your insurance requires it. I bought the first 5 days worth and then ordered from pharmacies with overnight deliveries after that. I had very little left over at the end of each cycle. Naively I assumed each cycle would be my last so I had no motivation to have ANY leftover for another try.
