Punitive Pharmacists Alter EC Prescriptions
Thursday August 24, 2006
Tom Head, About.com's intrepid guide to Civil Liberties, points out yet another despicable way some pharmacists are trying to exert inappropriate control over the lives of their female customers. From Tom:
Pharmacists in New York are filling EC, but subtly modifying prescriptions to strike out refills so that women who experience a birth control blooper a second time will learn their lesson. Money quote: "One pharmacist told the prescribing provider that EC 'should be inconvenient' for women and their doctors, and that women who needed EC were 'irresponsible and should suffer the consequences.'" These pharmacists must really love forcing women to get abortions.

I think that the people in this world are trying to PLAY GOD way to much.
It is not the pharmacist whom should have any right to judge just as it is not our right to do so either…. A damn pharmacist puts their pants on the same way we ALL do… who are they to have anything to say…..they can be more discreet about getting it for themselves or their night before bed partners…. who would really know??
Hypocrites
God Hath NO Fury Like A Woman Scorned!
May the high and mighty know what it’s like to have their teenage daughters tell them (their pregnant)…. I’d like to have pictures of all their smug faces when that happens.
