I don't like medication wasted
As a patient I do have a concern over speaking to a doctor over the phone only to get a diagnosis, I prefer face to face always. I was recently diagnosed over the phone only and I was given antibiotics and I have several of them left over, if I give them back to the surgery they will dispose of them but there is nothing wrong with them. I choose to keep them for myself and use them in the future if I get the same problem. I really do not like the idea of medication waste.
