It is absolutely not the job of a pharmacist to make decisions about which drugs are being overprescribed, and IMHO it's a dangerous thing to suggest. The pharmacist should assess for drug interactions, but we can't burden pharmacists with knowing the details that went into a prescription, and we shouldn't have them second guessing the diagnosis of a doctor. Down that road lies madness.
I get where you're coming from but pharmacists have the right to refuse to fill a prescription and in fact can be held liable for not doing so. Pharmacists are trained medical professionals and are expected to use their judgement
I agree it was a poor choice of words as the decisions are largely being made by regulators and doctors.
