Now I don't see how one can do that today UN LESS different names given?
Because now the computer system at all pharmacies have on line up dates and know everything before they even give you a drug. Also will even take steps behind your back and phone your physician that gave you these prescription /s to begin with.
This has happen to me as I was prescribed a drug at a walk in clinic and it would have counteract a drug I was taken that my family doctor put me on.
EVER SO GLAD THEY DID LET ME KNOW THIS TOO!

no it is not illegal, however if you are getting a controlled substance like say lortab,? they can track that stuff. you won't get in trouble. there is no law that says you need to go to the same dr and the same pharmacy. dr's can even see what meds you are taking and what dr prescribed them to you and what pharmacy you go to, but to your question, no it is not illegal
