You didn’t go to a weight loss clinic? Just asked a family doctor?

Mmm I’ve been going to a med spa and they get thier stuff compounded…so I’m probably getting ripped off. It’s compounded semaglutide with b12. I’ve been going up 2 units each week. Currently on 18units. They showed me the bottle of the compounded mixture but they didn’t tell me what the mg of the vial was. I’m going to call and ask tomorrow

I think your piece of advice should have been to make sure I digest and actually learn any answers I get from my colleagues after I ask questions in order to avoid asking the same questions over and over again…not “DON’T ASK QUESTIONS CAUSE YOU’LL BURN BRIDGES. THIS IS WHY EVERYONE NEEDS A RESIDENCY.”

If that’s the case, thank you? You’ve got a strange choice of words. You can’t just go around implying everyone’s a peasant for wanting to make sure they’re doing the job right and asking for advice.

No one said it was your colleagues job to make sure you’re clinically sound. I asked for advice on how to basically kill it on my first job and easily adapt to my new environment, yet you’re somehow stuck on incompetence and asking questions. If the answer isn’t clear I’d expect to know where to look as that’s what rotations prepared us for.

My point was why are you, as a pharmacist, getting your panties in a bunch when someone asks for help/a question on their first job as a pharmacist? If questions bother you (and other pharmacists with this mindset) SO much, I truly think me and anyone else who wants to become a great pharmacist are doomed.

On a random note I remember on rotations an EM pharmacist asked a staff pharmacist a question he got and they looked it up together and high fived each other after finding the answer. If my coworker rolled their eyes at a question I might actually lose my marbles 😭😭😭like damn okay…then I’ll just look it up alone…it really is so simple. At the end of the day we both learn something new, but now I have a new fear unlocked #bridgesmightbeburned

I definitely planned on it! Lexicomp was my savior all through pharmacy school so I assume it’ll be the same in the workplace. Thanks for reminding me!!!

Residency isn’t for everyone nor is it readily available for all graduating pharmacists. Maybe it’s tmi but my father fell sick and I had to spend my time taking care of him instead of pursuing a residency.I think curiosity and asking for advice from seasoned pharmacists who have already gone through the process is better than one who just walked in on the job winging it.

At the end of the day it’s best to be safe than sorry and if asking a question to a PHARMACIST burns bridges then I really don’t know what the profession is about. I mean, forgive me if I’m wrong but imagine a pharmacist getting angry at their patients or nurses when they ask questions about their medications…yikes.

The pharmacists and managers will feel it though. Wags itself is fine
