Beth,
Your response has not been altered or removed and it has actally been quoted twice in two separate replies.
No one has suggested to not see a doctor.
Please read the whole thread and especially the original post. Had the OP brought a non filled prescription with him, he would have needed it filled. A pharmacist would be the one to ask to fill it.
And although I hadn't mentioned it yet, should that particular drug not be available in Jamaica, the pharmacist would be able to suggest the local equivalent. Pharmacists, especially in Jamaica, do much more than just put the correct number of pills in a bottle.
