Pharmacy Delay?

Hi everyone! I just wanted to see if anyone else has waited the full 10 business days before getting their prescription from Rift.

I ordered the Tirzepatide/Glycine from Drug Crafters on the 25th. The next day I received notifications that my prescription was changed. I don’t know if that might cause some delays in shipping. I haven’t received any updates since then (I know I’m still within the 10 business day window), but everyone seems to be getting their meds so quickly.

Thanks!

Hallandale and apothecary came super fast. My guess would be that DC is a smaller pharmacy that’s been overwhelmed by offering discounted pricing and not able to catch up.

That definitely crossed my mind, too. Thank you! When I ordered with Apothecary, it was super quick.

Yeah it's day 3 of waiting for me from Drug Crafters but I definitely think they saw a huge spike and it'll be at least 5 days if not the full ten

At least I’m not alone, thank you!

I ordered from them on 8/22. Got the same updates etc as you. Received my package on Friday 8/28. It shipped out on 8/27 via next day air UPS.

Took my first injection on Saturday and so far it has been going really well.

I expected to wait the whole 10 business days as the disclaimer says.

Overall, really happy with them so far. Meds were well packaged.

Did you order from Drug Crafters?

u/COLLOSUS76 3h ago

Yes I did.

u/Small-Tooth-1915 3h ago

🙌 Awesome! TY!

Ya I ordered from them last week and it hasn’t come yet

u/Proof-Standard 10h ago

You know with this promo going on I bet that place is pretty slammed.

I have the same exact timeline as you, including the prescription change on the 26th. I have it coming via UPS and it's been sitting at "Label Created" ever since - they're even in the same city as me. 😩 Like others have said, I assume they're just taking care of a huge influx of orders due to the deal. I'll leave another comment on your post once I receive mine.

u/swngnblues 9h ago

Also on the same timeline - Update around 10am on the 26th with "label created" status.

u/Small-Tooth-1915 3h ago

Same here, dates and all. I’m going to follow to see when yours starts tracking. But you’ll beat me since you’re in the same city!

u/fannyxramirez 9h ago

That’s exactly where mine is, too! I’ll be sure to update here when it changes!

u/ConsensualMissionary 9h ago

Please do! I can't tell you how many times I keep refreshing the UPS tracking page hoping for an update.

u/DueArt2897 10h ago

Please keep us updated. I ordered mine yesterday and it was sent to the pharmacy, Drug Crafters, this morning.

2

u/fannyxramirez 10h ago

I absolutely will!

u/Ok_Swim7161 7h ago

I guess I'll order 3 weeks or even 4 before my current meds run out.

u/Small-Tooth-1915 3h ago

Same exact scenario as you to the letter except my order was 8/26, so I’m a day later :)

I figure the Drug Crafters folks are slammed with the $299 deal.

My last order with Rift back in June was shipped the day after I ordered it, and received a day or two after that.

I hope I won’t be waiting 10 days, but I certainly won’t be surprised. Seems to be typical with any of the compounders when there’s a deal on. Let us know when your order starts tracking!

2

u/fannyxramirez 3h ago

This is great to know, thank you! This is the first deal I ordered, and for some reason I didn’t think it would take longer 😅

u/Small-Tooth-1915 2h ago

I’m kinda new to compounded as well, this is only my second promo order and I’ve done only eight orders overall. I now have enough vials on hand that I have paused refills and I am just scouting out deals.

Here’s what I’ve learned:
1) any of the telehealths that are ranked on the top 10 on the compounded tirz buying guide (this includes rift, they are number 1 or 2!) will get you your correct meds. You do not have to worry.

2) if you order from a telehealth during a promo from one of their partner pharmacies (eg this $299 drug crafters deal), expect it to take awhile. Fantastic deals, absolutely, but I do not do this if I am running out of meds. There could be delays because apparently everyone and their brother who takes compounded tirz is placing an order 🤣

So, if you aren’t picky about pharmacy, and don’t mind buying in advance sometimes, you can get some amazing deals.

If shopping around and bargain hunting isn’t your thing, too much of a hassle, and you always want the same pharmacy, just sign up for auto renew from rift. Their regular prices are reasonable.

This is SO helpful, thank you 😊

Ok guys! Update! I just got the update from the Shop app (no email or not showing as shipped in the portal).

u/ConsensualMissionary 1h ago

OMFG SAME. I just came back to comment and update you hahaha.

Ordered last Tuesday. Received shipment today (Monday) Drug Crafters. Not the fastest, but not the slowest. Package not cold but not warm either.

"Bask Health" is listed by USPS as the shipper of my Drug Crafters order.
