I would be surprised if they did that. Some drugs are very expensive and
to have someone bring them back because they were not working well would
mean a big loss to them. It is the doctor who prescribed them. I can't
imagine them reselling them. The is the possibility that someone may
have tampered with them. That is just too much liability for a pharmacist.
