ASK FOR A REFUND ON DRUGS THAT DIDN'T WORK!!

[Guest guest]

>>I wonder what the pHARMacist would say if you went back in and

asked to return the drugs that didn't work???

 

Hi

 

I needed to come out of lurkdom for this one. LOL In addition to

drugs that don't work, I think people should be able to get refunds

for drugs that make them sicker than whatever they went in for. :-)

 

 

My Story...

 

A well known Pharmacy gave me a prescription for the EXACT drug

listed on the top of my " warning list. " It is printed right next to

my name. This drug has caused anaphlaxis and is a definite no-no.

 

I was waiting in the car when Dh brought the bag out, I read the

drug name and went right back in (less than 3 minutes elapsed from

the time on the receipt). They refused to give me a refund!

 

I asked for the Head of Pharmacy who would not listen to reason

either. The bag was not even opened from where they stapled it at

least four times.

 

I looked at her in the calmest manner possible and said " Ok, I guess

I will sit here in the waiting area and take the " prescribed "

dosage. YOU won't have to explain to the paramedics why I'm going

into shock because the evidence will be clutched in my fingers. " (I

would never actually take that risk).

 

I got the refund and an apology. I even got some coupons for my

next visit, but we never went back.
