When can I fill a script when the doc increases the frequency?
I am taking Adderall XR 20mg twice a day, and a 30mg once a day. The doc (neurologist) and shrink have changed me to Adderall XR 20 mg four times a day. Can I even fill the new script till the other script for 20 mg twice a day runs out? I figured since they supplied 60 (2 a day for 30 days) I should be able to fill after 15 hays since he changed it to 4 times a day. What do I do with the 30mg ones? Flush them, trash? Or take them back to the pharmacy to dispose of? This is for a head injury I got a few years ago, that's why the dose is high. It actually lowers my Heartrate and Blood Pressure.

Couldn't tell you the personal reason you're on such a high dosage, you'll have to discuss that one with your doctor. As far as discarding the old pills, you can keep them, in case you ever run out of your other ones, or I'm sure you could take them to your doctor or pharmacy to dispose of. I've never done that before though.
You should be able to fill your new RX now. The pharmacy should understand that your doctor switched your RX and you need it. They might not even ask about it! Give it a try. You can always call before you go, so you don't waste a trip & time! Good luck!
