With recent changes in legislation and the big chains now offering naloxone to patients and family/caregivers new challenges will soon arise. I'm curious how other pharmacists feel about this topic.
1. If someone came into your pharmacy at 5pm at a 500+ script/day store and says their friend is over dosing and they need naloxone now, are we obligated to fill it in 15 minutes or less?
2. Who gets priority, family of flu shot patients or naloxone?
3. Has anyone experienced either situation yet?
Parts 1 and 2 were meant to be lighthearted, yet realistic.
