Contraception Misperceptions
PHARMACY | RIGHT | OCTOBER 5, 2012
(I am a pharmacist working at 24-hour pharmacy. This takes place on a late Sunday evening.)
Female Caller: “Hello, um… I… um… you know the morning after pill?”
Me: “Yes, certainly. What would you like to know about it?”
Female Caller: “Is there an anti-morning after pill?”
Me: “Sorry? An anti-morning after pill?”
Female Caller: “Yes. You see, this guy, he came around today, and he brought some flowers and everything, so now I’m kind of regretting taking that pill. So is there an anti-morning after pill I could take?”
Me: “No, I’m sorry, there isn’t such a thing.”
Female Caller: “Oh, that is a shame. Do you think they will make one?”
Me: “No, I’m sorry, but I really don’t think they will.”
Female Caller: “Really? Oh, that is a bummer.” *hangs up*
