Pharmacy to get Daptacel from?

post #1 of 11
Thread Starter 
The pharmacy we were going to get Daptacel from (Professional Pharmacy in CT) doesn't have it in & doesn't have an ETA. Anyone know where I can order it from & have it shipped to me? We need it ASAP... Thanks if you can help!

Wow this is an old thread! LOL!!

 

We did get it, from RiteAid believe it or not. Stop & Shop also carried it but required a 10-dose order, RiteAid let us get just a single dose (with a prescription from our doc).

How come your doctor cannot order it into his/her practice? We had no troubles with that, and we're like in pampa land...

Thanks for your help!



Wow, I didn't know that (about them coming form dept of health in vt).  I live in VT and my dr. always offers us a choice on whatever brand we want for whatever vaxes.  Guess that's why i'm so lucky! lol

Hi.  Adrienne-can you tell me which Rite Aid you were able to get it from?  hollytheteacher-do you mind sharing who your pediatrician is?  I'm about to start vaccines for my son and am discovering these obstacles.

I found out that Walgreens (specifically the one in West Lebanon, NH) will supply me with a single dose of the Daptacel vaccine with a doctor's script.  It took a bit of searching, but I found it!  It's tough in a state like VT where the health department supplies all the vaccines for docs.
