Have any of you ever heard of that advice before?

I hadn't heard that before but it sure makes sense to me. Where I live our medications are tracked and counted through a central computer system. I stock piled some oxycodone for emergencies because doctors here won't renew a prescription like that for another doctor. I got caught on that when I needed some following surgery and my regular PM doctor was on vacation. I simply asked my doctor to give me extra so I wouldn't find myself in that spot again.
