PHARMACISTS-A question

Question

When you catch someone who has a fake prescription, do you want to help that person get help from their addiction, or do you get angry and just hope they go to prison, or both?

Answer 1

by law they have to report; otherwise a doctor and the pharmcist can lose his licence.  

Answer 2

it's a shame to try to pass off a fake script in order to feed his/her selfish addiction. that person is stealing a doctor's good name by forgery and testing the pharmacy staffs intelligence. he/she should go to prison for such an act and hopefully they will learn to reform there. some get angry because it does cause a blip in servicing customers who really need medication but at the same time we hope we don't see them doing this again. it really depends...but for me silly rabbit tricks are for kids.

Answer 3

I would imagine, that they get pretty fed up, dealing with people who have fake prescriptions. They have to stop what their doing, and report it. This takes time, and every time i'm at the Pharmacy, their busy. There is nothing they can do, to help these people. If they wanted help, they wouldn't be tring to get one over on the Pharmacist. If someone was putting my job in jeapordy, I would be very angry.
