One Week later...

John is a truck driver. You neglected to warn him for the side-effects of the muscle relaxant. He was pulled over by the police and has been charged with impaired driving.

"You should have warned me", he says.

You feel frustrated that there is not better communication between you and the pharmacists about such issues as to who needs to warn the patient about potential side-effects. You hear that there is a new information system coming in, that will improve such information sharing between physicians and pharmacies. Maybe that would have prevented this debacle.
