Substitute, But Don't Substitute

I get a script today from a dermatologist, who often writes for pain meds and antibiotic for certain procedures.

Today, he wrote for "generic Tylenol #3" and checked the May Not Substitute box.

Sigh.

What do you do in this case? Do you have to call and get confirmation?

I hate having to do extra work for stupid.

I call them - mostly just to make a point! I figure, the more calls they get about this, hopefully they will learn to write it correctly. Sheesh.
