GL: Prescription drugs

[Jerry Berndt]

The admiral and I are beginning the planning for cruising the loop in  
the spring of 08 and have some concerns about filling drug  
prescriptions en-route. Our plan has 3 month by mail as an option but  
we do business at national chain that is quite good about filling  
existing prescriptions in other states. For some of these  
prescriptions one does not want to interrupt even for a day. One is a  
'controlled substance' which in most states has not a problem except  
in NY (required a NY Doctor's prescription).

Is mail forwarding reliable enough to ensure delivery?
Is it better to plan a stop at the local Rite-Aide?
Is there a Doctor to Doctor prescription system?

Any thoughts or experiences would be welcome.
