I've always had high-deductible insurance and for many years I specifically had allergists write me prescriptions for generic Adrenaclick. I've been to Rite Aid, Walgreens, Target, and CVS and they always magically fill it with a name brand Epi-pen. The pharmacy techs always refuse to fix it saying they can only fill it with the brand name. I have to insist on speaking to the actual pharmacist who apologizes, corrects the issue, and explains to the pharmacy tech how it works. My physicians are writing the prescription properly. One year out of frustration I made my doctor actually write "Adrenaclick" and "may substitute with generic" and they still filled it with an Epi and the tech tried to argue with me that "Adrenaclick" was another word for "Name brand Epi-pen" Last 2 years my allergist let me know Auvi-Q will give you them for free as long as you have any commercial insurance. They submitted the paperwork, I answered one call confirming my address and I got four Auvi-Q injectors in the mail the next day. Glad I didn't have to pay $100+ and argue at the pharmacy.
