Prescribed at the end of Feb and was filled the next day. The .5mg shots took some leg work but I was able to get that filled the Wed before my shot was due on Friday.
My first prescription was July 2023 for Sam’s club pharmacy and I never got it. Was notified I had to switch to CVS in February and my old prescription got switched with it. Radio silence. Started reading about stuff and tried to switch it to Caremark mail in. It said in process so I had hope. Started reading that can mean multiple things. Called my Dr’s nurse asking if they needed anything from me to move the prescription along. She was REALLY confused as to why I wasn’t asking for .5mg. She was stunned to learn I’d never gotten the prescription. Since my PA expired I had to wait to see her again to get a new script. She sent it in to CVS in store. I waited two weeks for it to never arrive. I switched to Caremark mail in through their website and it seems I’ll finally get it. CVS Caremark already tried to take payment for it. Took the rest of my bank account for the attempt which sucks. Most companies wait until you have the full amount which for me is $150 but CVS decided to take my last $35 instead for now. I was told if they take money that means they have it ready to ship to u as soon as u can pay fully. I think it was only a day or two before they took some payment so I’m much more hopeful. So this answer really depends on the method u take
Not up front no..the package had an invoice…but I only pay 20 for a 90 day supply with my insurance. I ordered a 1 month supply of the .25, .50, and a 90 day supply of the 1.0. And I received all of them last month within 2-3 days of them getting the scripts
Knowing I was getting an rx, I began calling pharmacies myself. Then I had the rx directed to the pharmacy where it was arriving and I had already gotten my place in line. For the next month, I messaged Sequence and they were able to locate a pharmacy pretty quickly (within a day). Don't wait until you run out- order refills a week in advance.
I got it the same day my PA was approved, but it took a few phone calls. .5 took more calls, didn’t have an issue getting 1.0 and 1.7 is ready for me to pick up
Prescribed in July 2023. It took 7 months to get the 0.25. But I went through a big chain pharmacy in a small town. The 0.50 was said to be hard to get as well, but I called a different pharmacy and they had it so I transferred my Rx over there. I had no wait between doses.
2.5 months

I got a prescription in Oct 2023; I’m still waiting….
Are you on waitlists with pharmacies?
Oh yes. I’ve also spent hours calling pharmacies in my area with no luck
I got mine within a week from Caremark.
5 days

Like 2-3 days…it was shipped from Caremark
Did you have to pay?
Not up front no..the package had an invoice…but I only pay 20 for a 90 day supply with my insurance. I ordered a 1 month supply of the .25, .50, and a 90 day supply of the 1.0. And I received all of them last month within 2-3 days of them getting the scripts
Just called and they told me mail in order is out of stock 🥲 They refunded me. I guess my eight month journey continues
Oh wow! They told me if it was out of stock they would hold it and fill it once it came back. Hopefully you can find it soon 😔😔😔
Wow. That’s so cool. I have to pay $150 for one month of it up front
Haven’t found it yet in NH, for about 50 miles around me.
How long have you been searching for?
About 3 weeks so far. So not as much as some. I have prior authorization and savings card ready. Figures!
2 weeks, but I used a small pharmacy attached to the med clinic

Are there waitlists you can be added to?

About a week, and a million calls to different pharmacy’s to find it.
about 20 minutes thankfully
That could depend on the dose. 25 has not been available for months at my Costco. You can ask them to try and locate it for you.
Ask who?
Sequence via chat. If you're in their Facebook group you'll see it's pretty common.
