[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]CVS has been awful lately. The pharmacy is extremely short staffed near me and it took two days and many hours in lines to get a much needed antibiotic (that they had in stock!) recently. I'd see if they can transfer the prescription to another CVS that might have it in stock?[/quote]

Not sure what is behind it all but there is apparently and known issue w/ stock shortages throughout the CVS pharma in the DMV.  We needed a common antibiotic for DS ear infection 3 weeks ago and they didn't have it or know when they would.  We called the Dr back and had them sent it to a nearby Safeway and got it the next day.  And then yesterday, out of the blue, I got a text from CVS saying that the prescription was now ready...  glad we didn't wait.

My advice would be to transfer but not to another CVS, at least for now.[/quote]

I’ve had the problem with delayed  prescriptions for my son a few times. Each time I called the CVS that was out of stock and they were able to tell me what CVS pharmacy nearby had it and transferred it there. They also told me which CVS near me is the largest and most likely to have prescriptions in stock. If you’re near Bethesda, it’s the Cabin John CVS.[/quote]
