require only one drug per class

I think the writer meant 'allow'

And that's the problem, Not everyone can take the same drug for the same condition. Add in multiple prescriptions and you have issues with the drugs interacting with one another. Also for those on longterm prescriptions there are those that develop issues and the Doctor changes the prescription.

So in the wisdom of the non-doctors who run ObamaCare, these details were not and will not be taken into consideration!

There are many (un) intended consequences under Obama care that will start to bubble through the surface.
My Spouse has had 4 Back operations, has titanium rods from her neck down to her tailbone and rods going into her hips.

Her doctor had tried all different medicines, including morphine patches, to help with her incredible pain. # years ago, she stumbled on a medication that has pain relief as a side effect. It worked wonders.

This month we tried to fill her new prescription, only to be told that the medication was refused, because of the new Obama care rules.
I spoke with the pharmacy and was told that our predicament is not isolated. Many prescriptions are affected and many customers are starting to be upset even cursing at the stores. Of course, it is not their fault. It is the ACA that is causing the problem.
Just some food for thought.................
We can pay for the prescription on our own. $ 500.00 PER month. We had it filled for 3 years without a problem. So much for your Doctor to decide what is best for you. I guess beaurocrats know better?

Particularly bitter medicine given the fact we are on the cusp of the genomic revolution that will allow doctors to customize drug therapies for patients.
