Guest guest Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 Rae, I am not sure what CVS stands for but they bought out EHS (Eckerd Health Service). All of the Eckerd drug stores in town have changed their name to CVS. I use the mail order because that is what I have to do because of my insurance. I wish I could change because I am not happy with CVS mail order. Wanda In a message dated 1/17/2005 12:25:55 A.M.

I live in a very small town, and we have only two drugstores. I get all of my medications from CVS. Since they have to special-order Enbrel, I have to tell them when to order it, and it usually comes in two or three days. To work around holidays, sometimes I'll tell them a little early to make sure that I get it on time. Since it's such a small town, CVS is just like a little neighborhood store here. I am going back to the old Enbrel, too, until they get sharper needles, LOL.
