The doc called CVS to have it filled correctly. Had to wait 24 hrs again. Went in 3 days later and they charge me again even though they did it wrong at first. They claim they can't take medicine back. When I get home to apply the cream it looks noticeably different than what I'm used to seeing and it seems like it's not an ample amount of the active ingredient(steroid) I want to know if there is an agency to measure the ingredients in my script?

It is a very good idea to photocopy your RX before taking it in the pharmacy. Then these questions would not arise.
You can always request to have a COPY of your RX given to you from the pharmacy. Then you would know exactly what you were prescribed.
If it is a recipe with more than one ingredient, you could see that.
