My husband has been using tamper resistant pads for years. We actually found a company that was cheeper than our plain pad supplier. 20 pads (2000) scripts for under 60.00 including delivery and set up. We even have our logo. I beleive there number is 800-667-9723 and they are very very helpful.

If I ever had to say that to someone who needed medication, I might have to stab my eyes out. Never , ever, ever….it’s bad enough as it is.

I’ve been using them (voluntarily) for a few years as well. They really aren’t that much more expensive and you use them the same way you do the old ones. I suspect most of the resistance is more inertia-related than anything else. They don’t fax well so we keep some of the old style scrips around for mail-order pharmacies.

I say, get over it.
We’ve had those pads for years, they’re no big deal.
