[QUOTE="JMK1954, post: 2443575, member: 352098"] I have always insisted on picking up my repeat prescriptions myself since my husband picked up insulin for me and it was not the right one, This was a few years ago when bovine insulin was still available. I was dispensed a 30/70 mixture instead of Hypurin Bovine Lente which I was expecting. The young pharmacist argued with me when I got to the shop ! I think he was a locum. Since that point, I have always unpacked the pharmacy bag before I leave the shop. It saves a repeat trip if there has been an error and saves waste within the shop. The staff at my branch of Boots always show me the insulin before putting it into a bag, on the grounds that I know what it is supposed to be. That suits me. [/QUOTE]
