  4. I priced a few different generic over-the-counter and behind-the-counter non-prescription medications today, and they cost significantly more at Walgreens than at three other local large-chain pharmacies. One of the meds cost over double at Walgreens!

    Walgreens is owned by private equity by the way.

  5. #Editors, how should you handle #trade & #generic names for #medications? @laurapoole.bsky.social explains in a Quad blog post: quadlings.com/copyediting-drug. The Quad is a #MastermindGroup that she, 5 others, & I have been in since 2015. quadlings.com

  6. …Experts in #pharmaceutical #regulation said the #FDA doesn't have the authority to unilaterally impose a #ban on #medications that have already received #US approval & have long been available without new evidence of a safety problem or finding that the original application seeking ⁠approval contained ​false statements. The FDA can ask a drugmaker to withdraw a #medicine, but the company can refuse.

  7. @ireneista @JessTheUnstill Alright! Hopefully last ping (unless further questions idk)

    So! I was ignoring the phrase 'blister packs' because I was thinking of the sheets you get in any medication box.
    No, apparently.
    (Canadian, at least) pharmacies refer to "personalised pill packs" as blister packs.
    *That's* what I was missing.

    [I still remember a talk that @RelaenaSindelar gave about pharmaceuticals in the waste stream; one of her examples was Sequim, WA - in the banana belt - with retirement communities' flushed medications’ and the downstream/coastal effects - NOT the Grand Canyon! :( ]
