MemberI have written before on this subject
I was having bad night time side effects from the 60 mg pills taking them every 6 hours I had bad leg cramps during the night
When I switched to 2 180mg pills one morning and one at night
The cramps subsided
In the interim I have been able to reduce it down to one pill a day which I take every morning with my breakfast
I use to be able to order it from Costco and get them the next day
The last time I ordered them it took a little over a week and I noticed that they changed to a different manufacturer
The best part is that medication supplement from WellCare now covers the entire cost saving me over &100 per 60 day period
They had covered the 60mg but balked at the 180mg until I got the doctor to write them
Check with Costco and I order 2 weeks in advance
Hope this helps
