14 Year Old Girl Denied Life Saving Prescription Two Days After Arizona Passes Abortion Law

[skews13]

A fourteen-year-old girl who became the first child in Arizona to be denied treatment for a debilitating rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis disease that she has suffered from for years. The girl was refused her refill prescription by Walgreen, and the company cited the drug methotrexate in the State’s anti-abortion bill, which helps provide comfort from her pain. The State of Arizona has banned methotrexate, when taken with misoprostol can be used to terminate a pregnancy.

Welcome to the new Christofascist America.

Wacko.

I am sure Jesus is proud of his christian military used to enforce their tyranny.

 

[Canon Shooter]

That's insane.

The zealots from the right will be along shortly to explain how it's okay, since it's rare to see a 14 year old girl with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis disease...

 

[Rambunctious]

Is it a proven treatment for her condition?... because if it's not they can't give it to her untested....

 

[ZZ PUPPS]

Yet she had the Rx filled 24 hrs. later after her MD verified its use.

I’m pretty sure that one uneducated Walgreen’s pharmacist is not evidence of a “Christian military”… but you know this.

Welcome to the new Christofascist America.

You have just exemplified one of the main reasons why the US is in such dire straits socially: expanding the blame for one specific instance and blanket label the guilt. Your leap involves using the ineptness and uneducated actions of one pharmacist, who happens to work at one of the Walgreen’s pharmacies, to claim it’s proof of “the new Chrisofacist America”.

Not to mention he glossed over the fact that the error was corrected and the patient (a minor) had her medication prescription filled.

Welcome to the new Christofascist America.

this is already resolved skews.....so once again you put up a another useless thread.....

 

[ZZ PUPPS]

It was a click bait article followed up with this click bait thread.

The left relies on dumb pro-aborts like you to respond to this crap without taking the ten seconds it requires to check the story. Good job, sucker, Joe Biden is proud of you.

Again?

Must be trying to stock up on that script.

The point here, other than the one on top of your head, is that it never should've been questioned. It was medication the girl had been taking before the idiotic law was passed.

But zealots like you applaud bullshit like this because you're fucking stupid...

It was a wholly unnecessary error caused solely by zealots...

because no one has ever messed up a prescription before the returned the abortion issue back to the states.

 

[Canon Shooter]

Huh?

Not sure what you're trying to say there, but this was a medication which had previously been prescribed to the girl. This was a refill. There never should've been a question about it.

But that would never satisfy the zealots...

Verifying a prescription with the authorizing doctor is a daily occurrence in this country. This incident, which happens thousands of times every day across the country, was used to rile up dumb pro-aborts like you, and of course it worked.

More mindless liberal hate for Christians

Science informs us that even lib women give birth to human babies even if they turn out to be rats when they grow up

And they were human from the moment of conception

Which means the issue is the basic right to life of unborn children

You're truly a dumbass.

She'd been taking this medication already. She was trying to get the prescription refilled.

I've had pharmacists verify prescriptions before, but never on a refill. Never; not once. It doesn't happen "thousands of times a day", so you should probably shut your fat fucking face until you get a clue what you're talking about.

It's disgusting that you would be all too happy to take this girl's medicine from her. Hopefully, one day soon, someone will do the same for you...
