∙ 11y agoAny doc can persribe it as long as the script says it is for pain and not for opiate dependence. It can only be written for opiate dependence in a clinic where they dispense it to you daily.
It is much cheaper to get a script from the doc and bu a 30 day supply. It will cost well under $50 for a month supply. compared to costing 10-12 per day at a clinic, plus you can take it throughout the day , which will keep your pain levels down alot better than a big dose taken once a day from a clinic.
