Getting a medication tested at a lab or somewhere
Does anyone know whether a private citizen can get their medication tested somewhere to ensure it is what it's supposed to be? I called a local Pharmacist and was surprised that they knew of no place.
I have a prescription for a sedative/anti-anxiety. For the last 2 refills they have not been working for me. I was thinking maybe I had simply developed a tolerance. But then I came across some pills I had stuck in a little pill box in my purse (for when I was out in public and had an anxiety attack). I took those instead of my current prescription (the same dose level) and they worked just like they used to. These are the same prescription. So of course I am wondering whether the most current pills I got are what they are supposed to be.
I'm reluctant to ask these question initially to the provider because (and I know this sounds paranoid) but I think they are giving me a placebo. Thank you for any suggestions anyone might have.
