More like my doc gave me appointment too late, I'm in France and I have to see my psychiatrist every 28 days to get a refill.
I'm not familiar with how it works in France, but I'm just brainstorming plans to avoid it in the future. Are they able to send it directly to a pharmacy and not give the scrip directly to you? If so, is it also possible to try to get in a few days early for an appointment for your check-in and they can just send it off on time? In the States I only have to do a mandatory check-in once a year with a doc and visit a nurse practitioner every 2 months and she just has it scheduled to send the new prescription every 30 days. It is more convenient, but I have to trust that they don't forget and I have to panic call their office.
I usually have an appointment before I run out yeah, buuuut not this time
