As someone who cannot take a generic for one specific medication, CVS has been my savior. The other pharmacies, for whatever reason, stopped stocking that particular medication a few years ago and will no longer order it. CVS stopped stocking it as well, but some of the locations will order it for you.
On the downside, only some of the locations will order it for you. Many are so busy that they don’t answer their phones–ever (city problems). They also frequently try to refill it as a generic which is not the one that I need. So I have to go in person and not have delivery, so that I confirm I’m getting the correct medication every time.

How are pharmacies such a mess?
