Answer 1

I had a new blood pressure med prescribed. Went to the pharmacy to get it filled; the pharmacist asked me if I was still taking the old one. Sure I was. Well, the two in combination might kill me. Certainly the doctor told me to discontinue the old one. No, he did not.

I’m a big fan of pharmacists.
