It's very important to know what prescriptions your doctor is ordering for you. If you don't know, ask! Then when you pick up your prescription, compare what your doctor told you to the information on the label. These days you can look them up on the internet so you can double check. And if you pick up a refill and it looks different, ask your pharmacist to double check it.

My daughter-in-law just decided to change occupations after being a pharmacy tech for several years. It took her two years in school before she qualified for the position. It may vary state to state, but many areas require an associate degree.

Once I had an anti-seizure medicine that was dispensed at 100mg instead of 200mg. Now I always check the Rx before I leave the store. If something doesn’t’ t look right or sound right I ask about it right then.TREATMENT: PRN lidocaine/heparin Home Instillations since 2004

I had a small error made on my from the pharmacy. It was minor giving me ortho tri-cyclen insted of ortho-cyclen. But none the less, it could have been really bad if it was heart medication or something. Great point Donna.

If I don't check them at the pharmacy, then I check them when I get home, but most of my are refills so I know if they make a mistake. I know one time they did, and all I had to do was take it back and they refilled it with the correct one, however it was for my coumadin it was double the dosage, and I needed that night, they told me to half it and bring the rest in the morning. You really just need to pay attention to everything now.
I know one time the pharmist even called me about a prescription for my son, because they were missing some pills, (even though they double count this particular med) so I counted his and said that this was correct #) .Comment
