[QUOTE="DDD, post: 60798, member: 35"] Janet, you might want to check with the nurses at the jail to see how they handle medications. Sadly in our area you are not allowed to turn in medications for future distribution, there is a policy that prevents your MD from contacting them and only their official MD can decide what medications are needed and when they are given. Should you fill an Rx for anxiety, it is possible that it will not be allowed. Today is Monday and it is afternoon. My alcoholic boy was taken to jail around 12:30 AM Sat. He takes two anti-seizure medications a day. I called the medical station before noon on Friday and told them the name of the medication, the dose he takes and reminded them that he is the one who had brain surgery. Today at lunch time he called from the nurses station to tell me that "their" MD is going to have him take Depakote again. He has not had any medication since his breakfast pill Friday. He is having headaches. Nothing I can do. Just thought I might save you a future problem and lost bucks by suggesting a check on policy before you proceed. I'm sorry you are having to face the bottom of the roller coaster..again! DDD [/QUOTE]
