This looks awesome! However, the cons of this could be people getting mugged for prescriptions. I am fairly sure that a lot of the "300 most common drugs" are painkillers of CII-CIV variety.

However, if the bar-coding of a prescription makes it incapable of being altered, I am all for it.

Additional potential cons would be "slow-oriented" customers (the elderly maybe); the time it will take for them to figure out that it isn't an ATM + the time it will take them to do all that scanning etc...you know. And that would mean longer lines made of murder-intent customers.

But if they can tag along efficient solutions with those cons, I welcome the idea very much. It will potentially reduce the common risks that retail pharmacies in particular, have long been facing. Oxytocin robberies being a perfect example.

You mean oxycodone, right?

Nope...lots of pregnant women just want that baby out!

Haha, wasn't there a robber who made the same mistake? Funny stuff.

That's right.... there was. One of our pharmacists was preggo and was late by almost two weeks. We joked that we were going to open up an amp of oxytocin and make her sniff it.

Notice it still required a Pharmacist. However, if implemented here, the call center will be in India
