Guanficine suspension is a PITA

Joey saw the nurse, Sara, today and had his blood pressure checked. BTW he's 48lbs!! BP was 92/54, perfect!!!
The Guanficine is apparently a tablet which can be crushed and given in say applesauce (he hate this way of taking meds) or can be compounded into a suspension (liquid). So that is the route we're going to try. It gives us more control over titration which is a good thing. This is the type of med that you have to wean off not just stop cold turkey.
I dropped off the Rx at CVS and right away I knew it was going to be an issue. The lady looked at me like I had two heads, one green and other purple. She made me wait a bit only to come back and tell me they can't fill it. What she meant is that they don't know how to fill it and don't know if they have the necessary components to compound it properly. But they can order it tomorrow... I worked in there that if they need the recipe they can call the compounding pharmacy at Children's for help.
I'm in with Jackson putting him to bed, it's nearly 9pm and CVS calls to say they called the pharmacy at Children's and they don't compound it there. Well they called, I think, the hospital pharmacy. That's not the compounding pharmacy! I gave them the number but unfortunately they closed at 6pm so now they can't call until tomorrow so anything they need to order won't be in until Thursday. So Thursday will now be what I will be calling Day 1 (vs 2.0)  ;)  Good thing I'm not in a hurry. Man I miss Walgreens :( Wish they'd make nice with ExpressScripts so we could use them again.
