A member asked:

Could you tell me if the pharmacy gives you a schedule 2 drug or narcotic by accident, can you keep it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Gary Roach answered

You should not: Obviously this depends on the integrity of the person receiving the mistaken prescription. The person should return the drug.

Dr Eitner and 3 doctors agreed
