I dont know if i am supposed to do this... But i know a few of you are going to be taking progesterone suppositorys when you get pregnant.. And i have almost an entire box left over.. I used ONE out of it.. so there are 20 instead of 21.. and it could save a few bucks for someone..

Ill tell you exactly what i have.. and if its the same thing that youve been perscribed then PM me and ill get your address and send it to ya.

I think you ladies are smart enough to know exactly what you need according to Dr. instructions vs. what you think you need!

Its called Endometrin (progesterone) Vaginal Insert 100mg

I was perscribed them at my 8 week bleeding scare.. I was told to use them 2 times a day. NO clue if they really helped at all.. BUT i am 14 weeks now and my Ebaby is doing great! I think generally if they help at all its the people that start using them right after they O.... For people like me its just reasurring to FEEL like you are maybe doing something to help.

Anyhow! Maybe someone will need this! dont know

I'm not sure if it's illegal, but you're not suppose to take someone else's meds.

My parents are both taking the SAME blood pressure meds, and when my dad asked about just getting my mom to get an extra supply for my dad, the pharmacist said "no, he needs to have his own". It's the SAME pills!

Anyway, sorry to hijack your thread! I just wanted to back my responce up!

yep, it's illegal, however, who would know if you keep it on the down low. I definitely wouldn't post, "hey, I free meds". I might do it more subtle like, " I have left over meds, and I don't know what I am going to do with it". Some RE's take donated meds to give to someone who needs it. But, I don't see how they could dispense it legally either. They have a license to prescribe, not dispense. Thats my 2 cents!
