Just to let you all know. I worked in a pharmacy for 5 years through school and they DO NOT call the Doctor for every scheduled(or controlled) medicine. They are not required to by law and 99% of pharmacists do not even bother unless there is confusion about the rx somehow.
The busier the pharmacy, the less likely they are to call, also, there just is not enough time in the day. You would be surprised how many scripts they fill in a day.
And someone said then how is the pharmacist to know if you changed the rx or not? The answer is, if there are no marks to make the rx look messed with and if they are not suspicious, they do not know. I know we have filled scripts that were messed with and found out through the Dr for some reason but it was too late, but then the Doc makes notes on that person for future reference. We basically looked at the script to see if it looked messed with 1st, then the pharmacist always kept in mind the reputation and behavior of the patient, and then if no other suspicions were present, we filled the rx. Period. The only reason to call the Doc is if the rx is incorrectly written, expired, messed with, or questionable. It's always up to the pharmcist's discretion.
I just thought I'd help since I saw this all first hand over and over, maybe it will help. And having a kind pharmacist who isn't always suspicious or nasty helps speed up the process, too!
