I wonder what the ethics say about a physican that would issue a script for someone and use a false name in place of the person for whom the script is for?..

Or perhaps the person filling the prescription made a mistake with labeling. It has happened to me with an antibiotic. They had reversed the names it was a prescription for my doctor prescribed by me. :0)

According to the story, it wasn't a false name, it was the DOCTOR'S name. The doctor knew for whom the prescription was intended. There was no fraud; just an attempt to try to have some privacy.

Where did you see false name? You meant the two doctors' names?

In what way is protecting a persons identity unethical?
