He came in.
Man: I am looking for Benadine.
Me: You mean Betadine? or Benadryl?
Man: I don't quite remember the name.
Me: So what is it used for?
Man: Allergy, cold, runny nose etc etc.
Me: Must be an antihistamine.
Brings him over to the antihistamine section.
Me: Fexotabs, Telfast, Zyrtec, Claratyne...
Man: *still thinking hard..*
Me: Maybe it is Polaramine? *points to Polaramine*
Man: Oh yes yes, it is Polaramine.
Me: So do you normally go for 2mg or 6mg ones?
Man: Erm, I think it is Phenergan.
Me: Phenergan? You sure?
Man: Yea.
Me: So the 10mg or the 20mg ones?
Man: Just the blue ones.
Me: So you taking any other medications?
Man: Doesn't matter.
The first thought in my mind. "I HOPE YOU DON'T DIE TAKING THOSE". First, you aren't sure what you are looking for, then you wouldn't let me get more information from you. Doesn't matter, what does that supposed to mean.
Sometimes I do feel bad for not wanting to check for interactions but sometimes I think I should not care that much either.
