We were moving old hard copies out of storage and I ran into a ~15 year old hard copy from our area's notorious doctor. I think he's still got like another decade before he's even eligible for federal parole. He was in cahoots with/ being extorted by organized crime to sell fraudulent prescriptions in addition to his already egregious overprescribing. Just before he was arrested, a pissed off local ER doc tallied up ER visits for overdose from sketchy doc's patients at the local hospital system, and it was over 1 a day over a 1.5 year window if I recall correctly

When the Pharmacist circles the amount of pills dispensed? I’ve only ever seen it done on my narcotics. Is this some type of way legally to say that you’ve double counted or triple counted and verified how many pills you dispensed? As in a way to keep yourself from any wrongdoing or legal trouble? Just wanted to know. I’ve only ever seen this done at my small retail pharmacy and not the big retail ones. Thanks!

Way back in my nursing school days, in pharmacology, I had THE BEST instructor ever, a retired pharmacist! He was absolutely fabulous!

Let me set the stage, he practiced in Alabama, in the 70’s, 80’s and retired in the 90’s. Once he retired, he decided to teach pharmacology to nursing students at several different nursing schools. When teaching, he also added in stories of his real life experiences, of which this is one.

Dr. K worked at a home town pharmacy, not all the big box pharmacies like today. He knew most of his customers, even though he worked in a good size city. One day a gentleman walked who he didn’t know, who had a new prescription, for pain medication. Keep in mind, this was well before the opioid crisis!

Dr. K took a look at the prescription and advised the gentleman that it would take 15-20 minutes to fill and to have a seat, which he did. Dr. K then went in the back and made a call to law enforcement and advised of the situation.

A few minutes later, police arrived, the “gentleman” was arrested. Upon being searched, they found an entire prescription pad.

As he was standing there in cuffs, he looked at Dr. K and asked, “How did you know it was forged?!” Dr. K laughed and said, “Because you wrote the order as ‘More Fene 1 pound’. “

And that is how this prescription forgery mastermind’s crime spree was brought to a bring halt before it even started!
