Rant about pharmacy

So here is another rant of the day...
Went to pediatricians again yesterday for Emma. She developed a cough and fever along with ear infection. They prescribed her an inhaler and infant adapter just for her congestion. I watched them sent the e script and call the pharmacy to check if they had it in stock. We drove to pharmacy which is an hour away from docs and near our home. We got there and pharmacy tech had not even opened the email yet so it would be another 30 min. Ok what is the point of sending it ahead????? After waiting 30 min they had only filled one of the three scripts. She went to go get the inhaler and adapter only to realize that they were out of stock in the adapter. Why did you tell the doc office you had it then? They called other pharmacys and found one. I asked if they could garentee that it was there, stupid b almost got knocked out when she said "sorry hon, there are no guarantees in life". Um b I have been waiting here for an hour with a sick baby. I hate the pharmacy!!!
Sorry rant over

That really sucks!  Although, as a pharmacist, I can tell you we've been running ourselves ragged lately!  Everyone in their brother is sick right now and everyone is trying to get all their stuff before the holidays etc. 

Our eprescribe system takes a while to come across on the computer too....like I've watched them send it in the office and then gone to the pharmacy (where I can fill things myself) and it's still nto crossed over to the pharmacy system yet. 
Sorry you had a rough day!  Hope everyone gets to feeilng better!

I totally understand that they are busy. It was te technicians flippant attitude that got me. I know that they had just as long of a day as me and I kept my cool reminding myself that I was not mad at them just the situation. It is heartbreaking to have a sick baby especially when they are so little. She was very callouse an lucky that I did not go off on her
