Special Report
This week Drug Topics featured “Electronic prescriptions: Return to sender,” written by the Cynical Pharmacist. As that submission arrived, in a stroke of synchronicity, reader Tom Hanson sent us his take on the same subject. Turns out, there’s a lot more to say. We’ll bet our bottom dollar that you can add more examples from your own experience. Want to swap e-Rx stories with your fellow pharms? Send them to drugtopics@advanstar.com, and we’ll make it happen.
