Against code of conduct disclosed my prescriber and medicines supp****

<p>On the 24th of February I received my medication as prescribed by a GP. On the 25th of February, a phone call was made to Dischem Norhtgate with false pretence. During a divorce, I am now dealing with direct threats that I am a danger to my young little boy, because I use an anti-depressant and sleeping tablets. A divorce is painful, strenuous. I am dealing with an aching heart, it causes one to become depressed, it causes sleepless nights’, and Dischem Northgate sympathises with the person on the telephone. You do not comprehend the stress that I am now facing. Against code of conduct disclosed my prescriber and medicines supp**** telephonically.</p> <p>Professional Practice: What does pharmacy law say about confidentiality?
