That's really stupid. If the patience doctor say's it's fine to get whatever prescription they need, than the pharmscists needs to shut their traps.

Wow. :huh:
Just a thought, maybe the child was gonna be a siamese twin, (Ischio-omphalopagus: Twins are conjoined with spines in a Y-shape. They have four arms and usually two or three legs. These cases can be challenging because the twins often share reproductive and excretory systems.) but, the other baby never developed, so that's what was left of it. :unsure:

Agreed. If they disagree and can't get past it morally then they don't need to be in that profession. Similar scenario: Someone that is morally against drinking alcohol waiting tables in a restaurant that serves alcohol. If you say you are morally against it and refuse then your ass is getting fired. Period. Should be the same for pharmasists, it's not thier decision.

Yeah I love you too! What about dispensing condoms? We do that all the time for DSHS patients - men and women. State Medicaid pays for it. What about birth control pills? I'd like to tell you that before Plan B was on the market, women would come in and the pharmacist would give them 4 high dose birth control pills ( a particular brand) and 2 anti-nausea pills....so...I'm wondering where they draw the line?

What do you mean? Like what do I think about pharmacy's dispensing condoms? I'm cool with that. Was the 4-pill birth control thing without a prescription? I'd be curious to know any long term affects like if some one did that several times. See, if that was without a prescription then that's kinda sucky because pharmacists are not doctors. I don't argue that they do indeed know quite a bit but that's a huge liability there.

In the state of Washington, doctors do not need to write a prescription for Plan B. This is true in a few other states. The must fill out forms and get training, all I know is it's extensive and time-consuming for the pharmacist. I literally don't know more than 3 pharmacists in the area that dispense it. I'm sure there are more out there I just couldn't tell you where. The Rph consults with the pt and they fill out consent forms etc. I'm not sure about how they dispensed the 4 high-dose pills. I was pretty green at the time so I'm not sure how the pharmacists covered themselves liability-wise at that time... :unsure:
As for the people that repeatedly fill their Plan B rx, usually if it's the second time, the Rph will suggest the person see Planned Parenthood or their MD for a birth control consult...pills,patches,shot,IUD. It's not intended at all for repeated use or as a back up method. It is a last resort.
 
That's very interesting. I had not heard of that before. It doesn't shock me though because Oklahoma probabaly wouldn't approve something like that.
