can my doctor write a prescription for a "sample" that he is out of in the office? . i don't want to have to pay for a whole prescription in order to test out dosage strength and my doctor is out.
samples are provided by pharmaceutical reps for this purpose but they are dispensed from your doctor's hand to the patient's hand. they cannot legally be dispensed by the office staff. a written prescription cannot be given or used for "samples". you may have to wait for your doctor to return.
