In US? Sounds illegal, frankly.> I tried to fill two prescriptions for focalin xr in a chain drugstore near my office and the pharmacist gave me five reasosn why I shouldn't leav ethe scrip with him
> "we don't have it"
> "don't know where to order it from"
> "we don't fill scrips for controlled substances"
> "the regular pharmacist is the only one who can order and she isn't in today"
> "if she were in she couldn't fill it because your prescription look s as if someone changed the date"

> I argued loudly then walked the extra ten minutes to my regularpharmacy that filled the scrips w/o a problem.

> Is this pharmacists behavior ethical or legal (in the US)?
