If a person comes to your pharmacy with a script for #240 Roxicodones and doesn't look like they're in pain then hmm maybe just maybe they took their pain medication and they're not in pain anymore...umm DUHH!
It seriously amazes me how nosy pharmacists and students like yourself care so much about who looks like they're in pain and who doesn't. It is absolutely NONE of the pharmacist's business how much pain a person is in. Your job is to fill the script and keep your nose out of other people's narcotics....I know I know, you're just mad because you went through 2-4 years of school thinking you will get/steal all the drugs you want when you ultimately become a pharmacist, but now you see they're not so easy to get, and you can't help being jealous when you see a bummy looking teenager come in with a script for #240 Roxicodone 30's.
Here's the truth, the government does not want any type of opiate available to the general public (people not in pain), not because they are addicting, but because all throughout history, the effects of opium give people POWER, no not big muscles, I'm talking about the power to not feel pain, the power to make it to the top of the pyramid with the help of opiates. Opiates in no way harm the human body, and even if they did, the government (aka illuminati) doesn't care about the public, all they care about is keeping the public occupied with their iPods and xBoxs and 46" plasma TV's, while they sit on their azzes rich and in control, and if opiates are available to the public then that WOULD BE a threat to their power, thats why opiates are limited to people who are in chronic pain, a cancer patient wouldn't be a threat.
I can proudly say that I am a rebel. I am prescribed #180 Roxicodone 30mg, and #120 Oxycodone IR 10mg per month and am in no pain whatsoever, and I snort them, and there's nothing anyone can do about it because my papers are legit and I don't doctor shop. My life is good, my sex life is incredible, and I own 3 small business which require no manual labor at all, I make my own hours. So stop b**ching about who looks like they're in pain and who doesn't.
There's a couple people in the pharmacy I work at that get narcotic painkillers every time they come in for years. It doesn't appear they are in any sorts of pain (boy do they have energy to yell when our some of the meds go on back order) and are always paying cash for it (sometimes upwards of 500 dollars).
Why would the same doctors keep prescribing massive amounts of narcotics to these people without thinking twice that they're addicts/selling the CIIs on the streets? Don't doctors have the least bit of common sense? Stuff like percocet sig: take 1-2 tablets every 4 to 6 hours as needed for pain FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS. I can understand if they recently had a procedure....but to be under pain meds constantly for years. If the doctors don't think they're getting people addicted, they're effing blind.
You won't, it's laughable to consider.
