What's this?

A problem was/is, they were prescribing 40-60 pills for something that a


person would need 2 or 3, max, to get them through. Then they end up with 40+ extra and 'think' they need to keep taking some, then their mind tells them they need more of them and then we're off. It's one of the reasons I always ask about how many/much of the medication am I getting and can I get a lower amount if I don't need it.
