PROHIBITION AGAINST INCENTIVES TO TRANSFER PRESCRIPTIONS
I am against incentives to transfer prescriptions. Pharmacist are here to help protect the public by looking for interactions of drugs and by knowing the patient and the medications they are taking. Every time you transfer a prescription you are adding another layer of chance that a interaction with some of the medicine they are already taking will be missed. Also, the prescription being transfered may be misinterpreted by the other pharmacy. To have people move prescriptions around from pharmacy to pharmacy because of a coupon offer is just adding another layer for mistakes to happen. Please consider that coupons put an added stess level on the Pharmacists, who are here to protect the public.
