Great Caesar's Ghost! I can't believe this happened and you accepted it. I hoped you called the main office of Walgreens to report this very stupid person! I would have gotten the cops and had that broad arrested for possession of personal property. Now the question is, what did *she* do with *your* script? Fill it herself and take them? This business about "the law" and "losing your license" is baloney. Why is it that pharmacists in Florida can refill your prescription *without* the doctor's consent? Do pharmacists know more than doctors when it comes to drugs? Yes, I believe they do. I was rudefully informed the other day that in Massachusetts, the drug OXYCONTIN cannot be dispensed from the pharmacy itself ... by a newly inacted law, it is to be DELIVERED to the patient.
I say this: give the patient what they want and they'll shut up.
