- You are working as a relief pharmacist in a community pharmacy. You notice that Christie, the 17-year-old daughter of a very close family friend, is receiving prescriptions for oral contraceptives and for the treatment of a sexually transmitted disease (STD). Apparently, Christie has been hanging out with a group of students whom her parents disapprove of and have forbidden her to see. You are very concerned about Christie and wonder whether her use of oral contraceptives may lead her to forego the use of condoms that could offer protection from STDS. When Christie enters the pharmacy to pick up her prescriptions, she becomes upset at seeing you and hurries out, refusing to talk to you. You know that if you were in her parents' shoes, you would want to know about the prescriptions. You are convinced that Christie is in trouble and needs the help of her family.
