If a person came in with script for a med they should not have been prescribed, the pharmacist filled it and the person died, what then?
Same thing with opiate abuse.
“If a person came in with script for a med they should not have been prescribed”
what part of Quietly, With Compassion and Humility did you not get?
Do you really think that a pharmacist is going to alter a prescription based on a question asked of the patient?
The prescribing physician has their name and telephone number listed on the prescription. Any questions about the prescription should have been addressed to the prescribing physician, not yelled out to the customer in the waiting area, and there should never have been an attempt by the pharmacist to have the patient explain or justify the medical situation.
This entire situation should have been handled between the pharmacist and the physician.
Won't the pharmacist be morally, if not legally,liable if he says, "Yes, I knew these hormones were not treating a disease, healing an injury, or correcting a physical anomaly, and yes, I knew the patient was in fact self-harming with the drug, and I knew very well what the severe side-effects or long-term health deterioration would be. But I was told to sell the drug regardless.
"Killed the patient? Not my problem. I was just following orders."
