What to ask the pharmacy

Say it the way your prescription reads, for example "Focalin XR 20 mg extended-release capsules, the quantity on my prescription." Say XR, because Focalin tablets are a different product.

State what your prescription specifies, and ask the pharmacist about substitution. If they are out, ask when their next order comes in.
