What is the pharmacists role in dealing with addictive drugs or drugs that might be abused or misprescribed? I'm writing a paper and I need to know how pharmacists would treat a situation where a patient may be addicted to drugs. Moreover, I'd like to know the protocol. What would happen in a situation where the doctor prescribed the wrong medication to a patient? How would the pharmacist deal with it? What are the safety protocols? How do they make sure patients with psychological disorders take their medicine? Please be elaborate. If any pharmacists choose to respond, some personal situations would help.

I have heard that there are Pharmacists who refuse to fill emergency contraception and birth control pills? I heard that there are Pharmacists out there who refused to fill prescriptions for emergency contraception and birth control pills, because they don't believe women should have them. Is this true? That seems unethical not to mention against a free market. I seems the best medicine for these Pharmacist is some civil disobedience, perhaps a website to report these offenses so it can be made known who is doing what. A free market can also be the worst weapon to people who have bizarre agendas.
What do Longs pharmacists in Hawaii wear to work? Sorry, don;t mean this to be a dumb question but I was curious what retail pharmacists in Hawaii wear to work.

Should it be legal for pharmacists to refuse to sell contraceptives on religious grounds? I'm a pro-choice, pro-contraception feminist, but believe it or not, I sort of have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, I think that contraception should be readily available to anyone who wants it. On the other hand, I also think that if the pharmacists own their own business, they should be allowed to set the policy. If anything, they're probably hurting themselves by refusing to sell contraceptives, since they're missing out on profits they could otherwise have. Should we just go ahead and let them shoot themselves in the foot?

does anyone in the country cares about the serious shortage of pharmacists in the US? There is a shortage of over 50,000 pharmacist in the US, pharmacies need to close for days because they do not have enough employees, people are waiting in line to receive bad service ( because the pharmacists are working to hard).... On the other hand, the National board of pharmacy (NABP) doesn't case about anything but money. It is not important to them that there are 3000, "Harvard Material", pharmacists that are trying to be licensed. When I call the NABP, they just ignore the problem and repeat the same record. I would like to make it public, the solution exist, at least part of it, but I do not find someone, with influence, that actually cares. Any suggestions?

What happens to a pharmacists license if they are addicted to drugs? What happens if a pharmacist is found to be a drug addict? Would a pharmacy keep that pharmacist on staff if the drug addict pharmacist agreed to treatment? Could you get another job as a pharmacist if you were fired?

Why are pharmacists such pricks when you have prescriptions for a pill? I had back surgery a couple months ago and have had to be on pain medicine. I've gone to a couple of pharmacies and they're all dildos and act like your doing something wrong for getting your prescription. If you have a legitimate prescription then why do they think they have any reason to stigmatize you. The reality is pharmacists are not incredibly special and generally people who couldn't cut medical school, but they think they have some kind of power, more than a prescribing physician. Anyone else have these issues with pharmacies or am I just overthinking the whole attitude

Why does it take pharmacists so long to fill a prescription? It is not like the old days where they had to grind powder to make pills, or mix solutions, to make a prescription. I see them them behind the counter at the grocery store, walking around andtalking, then disappear for a while. Don't they have little printers that print the label, and while that is going on, they can go to the automated dispensor and fill the bottle with a press of a button? Some of the stuff is already prefilled.

What kind of non-traditional job opportunities do Pharmacists have? Hi I am going to be a senior in High School this year and am very interersted in the Pharmacy programs at Ohio Northern University and University of Findlay. The tuiton at both of these schools is mind boggling and I am worried about the student loans I am going to have when I get out of school. What other opportunities do Pharmacists get other than the traditional family pharmacy, can I do research or are there other areas I can get into with this degree. Also I heard that the pharmacy program is one of the hardest that can be taken. Is their any advice you can give me as to how to get through the next six years without becoming completely stressed out and is it really worth it.
When pharmacists need some medication for themselves, what do they do? For example, are they allowed to get it from their own place of work, as long as say, a doctor allows the order and a fellow pharmacist fills it? Or do they have to go to an entirely different pharmacy altogether to avoid possible drug stealing claims or something to that effect?
Do pharmacists have the legal right to refuse to give me back my original written prescription? In other words....I thought that the prescription was mine....it was written in my name and if I take it to a pharmacy they should be the one with a copy of it and not me in my opinion. What is the law on this? On a narcotic, it would make sense for them to keep the original. But, that is just the point. Perhaps I want to change pharmacies. Especially if I want to go somewhere else for the next refill.
