Obviously not. -
Sorry I don't understand how anyone can discuss this issue. Pharmacists aren't hired for their moral beliefs, they're hired to fill our prescriptions, plain and simple. Anyone who refuses to prescribe a legal drug should be fired on the spot, first offense. I don't agree with giving kids fucking ritalin, but that doesn't mean pharmacists can decide not to give it to people as long as it's legal.Comment

Yes they should.
The same way they should be able to refuse painkillers or any other substance if they think it may used wrongfully.

hell no. their personal politics should have no say in what is legally prescribed by a physician. I think that if they even express their opinion to customers they should be fired.Comment

If someone has a prescription for a painkiller, they have to fill. They're not fucking doctors.Comment

Religious fundamentalists are crazy, they like taking away rights from other people, especially women. These are the same type of people who force women to cover their faces on the other side of the world. The only reason the USA and other western nations are so far advanced is because centuries ago the majority of us stopped listening to these nuts. If they had been in charge the whole time you wouldn't be able to show your ankle at the beach, forget about voting and having a job. Surprise, religious fundamentalists are back! You're only going to hear more and more of this shit over the next 4 years, trust me. The last 50 years or so have been so liberal in the western world, no one realizes that these crazies mean business, and there are more of them than you'd think.Originally posted by Elli

My friend went to her doctor and asked for birth control when she was 18, and he said, "Women really shouldn't enter sexual relations until they are ready to get married and accept the responsibility for their actions." So she went to the planned parenting clinic and got the same pills for 15$ cheaper. My doctor is female and never even blinked at me when I asked for a prescription.Originally posted by Rich

no that is a very personal issue. What if you are haveing hormonal problems and need to take it or somehting will go wrong or what if you need it for something else. And i think preventing is not so bad if you are not planning to have a family at that time.SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR.

Some pharmacists have moral objections to emergency contraception. Four stakeholders wanted to know if pharmacists have the right to refuse to dispense ECs and their liability for adverse events when they do dispense.
Response: Most provinces and territories have adopted a policy that allows pharmacists to have the right to refuse to dispense medication for moral reasons but they would be expected, as a standard of care, to refer the woman to another pharmacist, a physician, or health facility where the medication could be readily obtained. Questions regarding liability issues related to the dispensing of any drugs should be directed to provincial pharmacy regulatory bodies.

There's a big difference in a doctor limiting his services to specific specialties and a pharmacist refusing or balking at filling a percription written by a doctor. To make your analogy closer to the situation would be to have one doctor diagnose a patient and send to another doctor for treatment then have the 2nd doctor object on moral grounds. For instance: Pregnant woman has broken arm. Doctor diagnoses it and sends her to hospital for treatment. Doctor at hospital objects becauses she is unmarried.Originally posted by theking

Ah! Now the doctor should have known better. The mark of a good doctor is his/her "bedside manner", that is being able to tell a patient good/bad without sounding condescending or alienating. He could have told her of all of the potential side effects of taking the pills then concluded by telling her that medically it is much safer to not take the pills and to have sex only when she is ready to have children. He should be telling her that anyway, not on moral grounds. Some doctors are quick to write a perscription to companies they have deals with.Originally posted by Elli

My analogy is a good analogy...as many doctors refuse to perform abortions...for moral convictions...even though it is legal...just as many doctors refuse to perform assisted suicide/euthanasia...even though it is legal in some states.Originally posted by mardigras

Now that's a bad doctor. If his specialty is diabetes he could still help her with symptoms despite the smoking, and strongly object to the smoking at each visit and show her every negative test result that could be attributed to the smoking. Like too many doctors, he's too busy for his patients.Originally posted by theking
