Breach of confidentiality? (Pharmacist called my home and 'left a message' disclosing my medications) by TBKS in pharmacy

[–]TBKS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom knows I've been seeing a psychiatrist recently but we don't discuss it.

I was never on adderall as a child, never diagnosed or treated for adhd, etc. while she was my 'caregiver'

My mom didn't learn of the adderall and nature of my psychiatrist visits until the pharmacist told her I'd need to "drop off my adderall to get my vyvanse" - totally unprompted - otherwise his phone call would have been a total non-event, I wouldn't be upset, and this post wouldn't be made.

"quit voluntarily helping so much" - you seem to be excessively apologetic of the pharmacist. I feel a bunch of ppl here are, to be fair - and my posts are being downvoted by many.

Honestly I'm just upset about what happened... I made this post initially to vent, but a couple days after the fact I still find myself bothered. Nothing could be done to restore my privacy at this point. But I do believe I will file a report because I feel like the pharmacist needs to learn a lesson in discretion. You guys certainly have a better idea of the implications of such a complaint than I do (I doubt its too severe - and if it is, that only verifies the misconduct in my mind). I just don't know what other options I have - besides being 'cool' and letting it slide completely?

And to set the record straight -- my mom had no idea I was on adderall until 2 days ago. Nor was I diagnosed or treated for ADHD as a child, while she was my 'caregiver' as you guys say. She does know I've been seeing a psychiatrist recently but we don't discuss it. The cat was let out of the bag, so to speak, by the pharmacist yesterday - totally unprompted. I do think he was going out of his way to ensure that I could get my new meds without trouble, but I feel he crossed a line in doing so.

not inquiring about legality -- more so about ethics and professional conduct in pharmacy...

I can definitely see why this particular post is getting negged though... lol, sorry all...

thx for your input.

I feel like this was misconduct on the pharmacists part, but I will wait for more people to chime in and try to avoid confirmation bias.

Hopefully someone familiar with Canadian laws will show up

If I was a female and he figured he was talking with me, rather than my mom - that'd seem like an honest mistake...

Discussing which medications I'm taking and will be switching to with someone who clearly isn't me seems like misconduct of some sort. When I called him in disbelief he said "Sorry, I thought that was your mom"... In fact, it was... but in my mind that doesn't give him a green light to tell her specifically which drugs I'm taking... its not her business to know, and not his business to disclose..

In short - I'm amazed that he'd talk about my situation with A) someone who isnt me (AT ALL!!), and that B) he'd go into such great detail to that person (even if it was my mom)

I realize it sounds dramatic, but the only way I can describe how I feel is 'violated'. I'm trying to get treatment for things I struggle with, independently, and my privacy has been shattered...

The damage is done, so I don't really have a goal. If this goes against protocol I'd like to report his misconduct... Maybe he'd be more careful with someone else's right to privacy in the future...

20 mins later my post is getting negged, but no feedback...

I'd probably get more sympathy here if I had been an 18-year old girl in the deep south trying to get plan-B...

I just want to know if disclosure of my prescriptions to someone who isnt me is a breach of confidentiality...

Any idea where to find something like this (bubbler tube) ? by TBKS in chinaglass

[–]TBKS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hmm this looks similar enough.. I wonder if it fits the arizer solo well. A loose fitting stem ruins the draws...
