With great regret, I've to share this story with you...it's sad, but very true.

I was at the job yesterday evening and we had our usual craze between 10PM to midnight (and beyond...yup, I work the overnight shift!). We were looking to sort out an insurance coverage issue for one of our patients inside first lane of our own drive-through (we'll call her Sally) while another car sat waiting within the second lane. While my colleagues were dealing with all the drive-through patients, I became for the phone having a not so happy patient. Evidently someone was here to pick-up her medications and among them had not been ready...she said the person buying for her was within the drive-through in a very red Bronco (take note of that last part, it's somewhat important!) So, I solved the situation while using upset patient on the phone along among my colleagues sell her prescription to the person buying on her behalf (to the red Bronco guy in lane 2). Meanwhile, Sally wound up coming inside to call her insurance in hopes of solving the problem. Unfortunately her insurance had expired so she finished up taking her prescriptions back (one of which was for Percocet). We carried on with your work, helping patients as they came along and keeping things straight within the pharmacy. About Thirty minutes later, Sally called us and he or she was obviously a bit freaked out. Apparently, the red Bronco guy (who ended up in lane 2 while she is at lane 1) came as much as her outside after she left the shop and asked her if she had got a new prescription for a narcotic. If so, he wanted to choose the narcotic prescription from her. NOTE:  Narcotics are prescription medications utilized to treat severe pain, and so they can be sold illegally on the path being a recreational drug (gets people high and happy).

The red Bronco guy had overheard the discussion between Sally and my colleague while sitting inside drive-through. Somewhere in that conversation, the Percocet prescription was discussed so he knew she was there to pick-up an opiate medication. Even though his business was done at the pharmacy, he stuck around within the car park until Sally became available of the store...that's when he made his move. Luckily, Sally we had not filled/purchased her Percocet prescription - that knows what may go down if she had! It is not likely that Sally would have been hurt, but there happen to be cases like Sally's where people have been attacked. Instead, Sally was just freaked out (rightfully so) and planned to warn us concerning the red Bronco guy. Not only can pharmacies be held up, however you can be too - you could have what unhealthy person wants. If they desire your medications badly enough, they might take drastic measures to acquire them. I don't wish to scare you because it is rare that something similar to what happened to Sally would happen for your requirements - simply wanted to make sure you might be cautious of one's surroundings! If you feel you will need more privacy in the pharmacy, please allow the pharmacy staff know and I believe they'll do what you can in order to meet your needs...besides, it is the law! Has Sally's situation happened to you personally before? Definitely share your story because I think the more cases shared, the more cautious others will be!
