Can a pharmasist do this?

This doesn't sound right. No pharamacist shold rethink what the doctor was thinking.... even if 99% of the time they might have meant 3 refills, there's always that one time he really DID want 12!

Man, warts are the worst! I had plantars warts a few years back. I had the same one lasered off, frosen off, removed by a scapel. I even performed my own surgery with an Xacto knife a few times... no idea what I was thinking because I can't see myself doing it today, except I was in pain since this was on the ball of my foot and incredibly painful. It took a few years to finally completely go away = I feel your pain!

Call your doctor and get it sorted out. For the pharmacist to assume she knows what the doctor wanted is WRONG. You know what happens when you assume stuff.

The more I think about it, the more I am sure it was the doctors office that called me and told me they were giving me 12 refills... How else would I have known it and it set so worng with me when the druggist told me she changed it herself.. It really bothered me when I asked her 3 or 4 times IF she called the doctors office and asked and she dodged answering it every time! I called it in yesterday and picked it up today...

I am wondering if she wasn't planning to use MY Rx for someone else and it accounts for all the meds that leave out of there?

Hay Catnapper, I work with a guy who had about 6 of those planters warts on his feet and he could hardly walk sometimes. He finally got rid of them using this medicine and that is what got me to giving it another try. He would scrap them himself too.. I scrap this one every few days, hoping it will make that medicine get to the roots better and kill that thing. I had 2 of them on the same finger. Had them frozen at the doctors one time and had them burned off twice. The last burning killed the biggest one but this little on, right on the tip of my left index finger just does NOT want to go away!!!

I know an RX does have a lot of powers to change some things, like the brand without talking to a dr. or at least the ones here in Canada do. The RXs have a lot of schooling on all these medications, treatments ect. If you have a history with an RX, they know which brands are better for you.

Ex. I can get a prescription for Birth Control Pill & I can leave with Birth Control Patch.

I had a horrible reaction to the ulser meds I was on when I was 16yrs old.. the Dr. gave me the same stuff I told my RX what this did to me last time, so she gave me a different brand with diff stuff in it, to see if it reacted with me better. It didn't so she gave me Zantec75 instead.. that helped a lot (I lost so much weight cause my body didn't want to eat due to the pain food caused)...

But always questioning the Dr. about it is a good idea, you never know.
