Quote of the Week

Talking with one of the staffing pharmacists, regarding a patient who insists his insurance will give him an override so he can get his Oxycodone early:

"The guy is always trying to get his Oxy early. And we know he's blowing through it. One month he came in with a new Oxycontin script and he requested brand because - and I quote - 'the generic isn't as easy to crush.'"

Wow. Once again, gotta love when the patient removes all doubt that your abuser-radar is functionally correctly...
