Druggie Math

Woman comes to the drive thru Saturday night, naturally, ten minutes before close. She presents a narc prescription for Opana ER, an odd drug of choice around here.

We ever so kindly explain to her that we do not have this drug and, from our files, it does not appear anyone within our area has this particular strength in stock.

Her response?

Well.. I gots this injury and they give me like mor-feen which worked kinda good and Oxy which worked kinda good at someone told me this combines da two in ta one

Alrighty here, for those playing at home this druggie formulated the following math problem.

Oxycodone + Morphine = Oxymorphone

Actually, for a collection of people who cannot seem to figure out that 30 tablets, at one per day, equals a 30 day supply, this is pretty clever.

Sadly though, we attempted to explain to her that, like many other things in her life, she failed at this math problem.

Boo hoo.

Side note: When talking to your pharmacist, do not refer to Oxycontin as Oxy. Ya know, if you actually want us to fill anything for you.
