If the owner of a store refuses to stock a product, that's THEIR CHOICE. It doesn't matter if its a tavern owner refusing to stock Coors or a pharmacist refusing to stock the pill.

Well said.

So you would have no problem with pharmicists refusing to dispense insulin medication, cholesterol meds, obesity meds etc?

The pharmicists believe it's their duty to provide meds, give shots, diagnose illnesses, and consider themselves nearly doctors... isn't it then unethical?

And the story did highlight "birth control"! Not just EC.

Also, the Walgreens sell condoms but not birth control? imagine that...

Pharmacists, hospitals, doctors, etc are much different than other businesses. When it comes to saving lives, ensuring the wellbeing, it can't be just a business decision.

A pharmacist's job is to fill a perscriptive ORDER from a DOCTOR. Their ethic's or personal beliefs are not a part of the perscription. If the pharmacy stocks the medication then the 'script should be filled. If the pharmacist owns the store then they could choose not to stock a paticular item.
