What's bothering pharmacists?
ILLUSTRATION BY KIRSTIE BELLE DIONGZON
UNINVITED GUESTS
When patients try to walk behind the pharmacy counter to talk to us.
INAPPROPRIATE PRESCRIPTIONS
Physicians who try to prescribe an antibiotic for a viral infection.
ILLOGICAL IMPATIENCE
When patients threaten to drive across town to another pharmacy after we tell them it will take more than 15 minutes to fill a prescription.
HARDER THAN IT LOOKS
Patients who do not understand why we cannot just “slap a label on a bottle.”
