Anyone know about a new pharmacy law? [View all]
My mom is quite upset and worried due to things happening at the pharmacy. She has taken a low dose of Ativan for years following a heart attack. Never deviated from the proper dosage, never had any issues at all. Starting two months ago, the pharmacy has been requesting her ID due to what they say is a new law. This is in Florida.
She began to worry when she went to pick up my meds. I am on pain management, so I'm on five meds, yet they aren't requesting ID. Same for her brother and his partner, same for a friend of hers. She feels like she's been singled out. Of course, she then went searching the internet and is convinced she was "red flagged" for some reason. Very upsetting for an already nervous person.
Does such a pharmacy law requiring ID now exist, or is something peculiar going on? I'm trying to help put her at ease. :S
