My neurologist has me on Briviact as my primary medication, no generic of course. I call every month to refill and they always have to order... "We'll have it in 1-3 days." This month I called a week early. They still don't have it, but they will get it in tomorrow or the next day. I'm picking up 5 days worth tonight because I'm running out soon. I hate to go through another change of meds, but I think that's what I'll have to do. 😕
