If a doctor makes a prescribing mistake, the pharmacist HAS to catch it, because not only could it risk the life of the patient, but it could also ruin the _pharmacist's_ entire life.

My grandmother told me that, when she was a child (this must have been in the 1930s or 40s), she had a younger brother -- a toddler -- who was badly burned in a fireplace. The doctor prescribed a medicine that was supposed to be administered at a dose of 3 drops. The doctor accidentally wrote 3 dropperfulls. Her brother died of overdose. When the doctor found out, he came to the house and took the bottle of medicine when he left. And that's all I know of what happenned. That kind of mistake can absolutely be deadly.

I'm a hospital pharmacy tech and I freaking love it. We catch so many things down here so patients aren't affected. Everything from Valium to water to needles to belladonna and more are on backorder. Accuracy is what we do.

I’m chronically ill and I take a lot of medications, and I’m frequently on and off meds. There have been multiple times when I’ve gone to pick up a new prescription written by one of my doctors, or I get a call from the pharmacy, and they tell me that they can’t fill the prescription because it will be dangerous because of interactions with my other meds, my health conditions, etc. Pharmacists really are the last line of defence for patients prescribed medications, and they have definitely saved me a lot of pain and suffering, if not my life. Thank you pharmacists of the world!

My doctor: Any allergies? Me: Penicillin. Doc: Okay I’m going to prescribe you a cousin to penicillin. Me: … uhm. Well you’re the doctor, you know best. Pharmacist: Holdit-

So accurate. It sucks like hell you can’t sit down especially working all those hours and pharmacy staff in general are unappreciated. Most ppl don’t know how much goes into it. It’s not just counting pills. Thanks for this🥰😘

Hospital pharmacist really saved my dad. He was getting overdosed with chemotherapy. Sadly they didnt spot it sooner he got a lot of problems from one he still hasnt fully recovered but had it continued they could easily have killed him. I am hugely grateful to the observant pharmacist.

My husband is on a lot of meds, prescribed by 3 drs. we recently changed pharmacies and I am glad we did. We now get a lot of queries when we go to pick up the meds. They have alerted us to things we didn’t know about mixing these prescriptions. Has probably saved my husband’s life more than once.

A doctor literally accidentally prescribed my grandfather 100mg tablets of an opioid, when the correct prescription was for 10mg. None of us realised. The pharmacist caught on as I was buying it, and we got the prescription corrected. That could have easily ended in disaster otherwise. (My grandfather actually only survived a couple more months as he was in terminal stages of metastatic lung cancer, but I'm still so grateful to that heroic pharmacist)

One of my favourite things was when my doctor accidentally prescribed the same dosage of a different brand which has double the potency. 🙃 I was new to the pharmacy, and just had to tell them. “That’s not accurate” and she laughed and said she wasn’t surprised.

i am SO glad my hospital gives everyone chairs. all the pharmacists get chairs, and the techs have a couple so they can actually sit if they have a bit of time. its a life saver for me, who needs breaks now and then to keep my legs from aching. knowing some pharmacies dont even have chairs, im very grateful.

Real talk, my school doesn’t have a pharmacist shadowing, but now I can see it would be very beneficial. When I graduated and had to work on my first rotation of internal medicine, I was lucky to meet a nice and very intelligent pharmacist, she saved my life! And probably many of my patients too tbh.

I needed one pharmacist like this while I was admitted to a military hospital and on a IV for a stubborn, very nasty ear infection. They brought me breakfast in the morning with eggs, yogurt, milk bread and OJ. I just had the yogurt. Unfortunately, nobody noticed that there was a “no dairy” with those meds. Got the pleasure of projectile vomiting while trying to get home. Thanks to all the under appreciated Pharmacists keeping us safe 🥰
