I specifically told them where to send my prescription but it was sent to the mail order Rx-so I had to spend my time at home calling both pharmacies three times to correct the mistake. This was specifically irritating since it was an antibiotic I needed right away and could not wait a week for mail order to get it to me! So I think more attention needs to be paid to this type of situation and some common sense used.
