Dear Gerg, AndroGel contains testosterone, a Schedule III controlled substance 
as defined by the Anabolic Steroids Control Act. I got this off a website. I 
still don't understand why they would not take the previous prescription.  It 
seems kind of pointless that you would have to go and get a new prescription.  

Sincerely Kevin

I have been taking androgel since the year 2000 as part of the treatment for my 
pituitary turmor.  The first of this the year, 2008, Blue Cross swithed to a 
new mail-order pharmacy, Medco.  I was stunned  when Medco told me that they 
would not accept any refills on the open RX I had for the previous pharmacy 
because Androgel is considered a "controlled substance."  In all the years I 
have been taking this stuff, I was never told that it as a
 "controlled substance."  No info appears on the box or the RX label saying it 
is.  Is the something that Caremark made up.  Can anyone who is taking Androgel 
enlighten me on the subject?
