In reply to Re: ever received extra C11 meds from the Pharmacy?, posted by spriggy on August 12, 2005, at 12:04:35
My dad had his meds stolen (or lost) when he had his seizure. My mom bagged up all his pills and took them to the hospital (to show them what he takes). He's on about 15 different pills from diabetes meds, heart meds, hepatitis, pain meds, bp meds, etc..
Anyway, because they were stole/lost his doctor wouldn't call them in again for him- so when I was down there, I told my dad's pharmacist what happened and he supplied my dad with his medicine until the doctor would give a prescription.
I know he's done that type of thing before for my dad (when my dad couldn't get in touch with his doctor or whatever).
Is it legal for a pharmacist to do that?
