Members shared various strategies for managing epilepsy medication delivery, with many preferring local pharmacy pickup over mail order to avoid the anxiety of running low on medications. Several members described successful systems including 90-day mail order supplies with auto-refills, bubble or medico packs that organize daily doses by time of day, and backup plans like having both a local pharmacy and mail order option available in case of delays. A recurring theme was the importance of ordering well in advance (at least two weeks early) to create a buffer supply, communicating with insurance companies about delivery options, and working with doctors to request longer prescription periods when traveling or needing extra peace of mind.
