I recently moved my family to the Gulfport/Biloxi area, and this Walgreens north of I-10 off of Hwy 49 Will be the pharmacy I use from here forward. My doctor had post dated a few months worth of medication for me until my employment insurance kicks in, and Walgreens is the only pharmacy, the only one in the area that will accept out-of-state prescriptions. They called my doctor to confirm the prescription and receive authorization to fill and had it filled for me within 10 minutes.
If you were out of state, relocating for work, or simply traveling on vacation and do not use any of the local pharmacy chains as they will turn around and tell you that they cannot fill it because it is an out-of-state prescription, at least that is what all of them told me. It sucks, because I enjoy contributing and giving to the local community in anyway I can this being one of them, but unfortunately they would not accept me. Maybe one day the laws will be a little bit different to where there is transparency between big-name medical and small hometown pharmacies
