Not a pharmacist, but I’ve been a tech for the past five years while completing my undergrad, and I’m starting med school this July.
While home for the summer, I was filling at my local (chain) store. At work today, I received a script for Vicodin 10. After looking at their recent fills, I noticed they were also getting morphine IR 30, klonopin 0.5, and soma 350 for the past several months. I pointed it out to my pic, and she said to just continue to fill as is.
Forces notes stated that pt had narcan, but I feel like that’s kind of like a bandaid for a bullet wound.
My home store/pic was always more conservative (no otc needles, dispensed very few buprenorphine containing products etc) and we refused our fair share of control scripts. In this case, I’m not sure if I’m just not used to seeing as many “concerning” combinations, or if it actually is an absurd combination.
Thoughts? TIA
