Well Happy New Year all! I guess you could say Pharmacist Jamie was on a bit of a break. Enjoying a little family time during the holidays and keeping up with my day job has consumed the past few months. So I thought why not kick off 2016 with a controversial topic!

The weekly Wednesday #RxChat got the ole wheels turning today. We were discussing new regulations and laws in our states and how they will effect our current practice. The chat quickly turned to the dispensing of birth control pills without a prescription. Looks like Oregon and California are allowing pharmacists to dispense these hormonal contraceptives without a valid prescription.
