Big city girl who moved to the middle of nowhere to be a retail pharmacist. Yeah, I can’t believe it either 🤦🏻‍♀️

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

Guess what a customer found and brought in for me?? Never seen one in the wild before 👀

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

@alprazosam18 Literally cannot relate 😭😭😭

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

How unhappy of a person do you have to be to complain about someone’s PHONE personality on a corporate survey?? #jfc

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

At counsel (6 yo + grandma)

6yo: *sees antibiotics* oh no not this again! Why did Dr P send that? I don’t wanna take medicine! *looks at me* Do you take medicine? 🥺
Me: I do, especially if it helps me feel better
6yo: ….well ok I guess I’ll take it then

☎️
Pt (female): hi I was wondering if my doctor sent in an Rx for fluconazole for me?
Me: let me double check
Pt: she should have sent it last week when I asked her to. I told her if I even look at an antibiotic, things get a little sourdough-y down there

😶😶😶

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

@Comfortably_ill Oh you’re one of those people… see second part of previous reply and have a good night 👋🏻

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

☎️
Pt: hi did my dr send on my norco?
Me: yes but it looks like I can’t fill it until tomorrow (3/29)
Pt: well I filled it on the 28th last month so it’s due now!!
Me: there were only 28 days in February so we will fill it tomorrow when it’s due

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

@JOE_CHAMMAS I live in the middle of nowhere and know traveling is hard for some patients but in this case there was an earliest fill date on it

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

@rphjerry True but I’ve had four people within the last year. I’m desperate…

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

Out of curiosity, does anyone wear a fake wedding band to work? I’m debating it right now…

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

@alprazosam18 Me too! Debating if it would be worth it. Currently I’m leaning towards yes at this point

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

@RatchetLeah @PharmaBlue “Well that’s what they wrote for so that’s what they want” 🤦🏻‍♀️

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

*at counsel*
Me: here is your new dose of carvedilol
Pt: yeah those carvedilol tabs are tiny. I once dropped one of my old ones between my counter and my fridge but couldn’t get it so I left it there. A few days later I found a dead mouse and the tablet was nowhere to be seen!

[phlawless pharm✨ @PhlawlessPharm]

For my non peds colleagues, yes.. otitis media dosing for amoxicillin is “high”

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

@RxMySox They were not wearing one 😩

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

In store
Pt: hi I have this cough and was hoping to get a recommendation. I don’t have congestion but when I take a deep breath it rattles and I cough
*proceeds to demonstrate multiple times and cough all over me without covering their mouth*

I’m also sick now… I hate it here

[Ali Prazolam @aymaymayyy]

FUCKIN PREACH IT

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

@Nmdengel I wish I was kidding

[SmallTownPharmD @SmallTownPharmD]

The amount of people who use oral thermometers rectally and tell me they use the SAME thermometer for both routes is astounding 😖
