I'm really worried and hoping for some help. My doctor suggested my pregnant wife get Ovidac 5000 IU injections to help prevent a miscarriage. We managed to get one injection at a local store but we need two more for the next couple of weeks. I've already tried uploading the prescription, but our order got canceled. I'm having a tough time finding it anywhere nearby. What should we do next? Can you help us figure out how to get these important injections?
Since you mentioned that the injections were recommended to help prevent miscarriage, please ensure to keep your doctor informed about any issues with accessing the medication so that alternative treatments or options can be discussed.
