Mistaken Shaken Medication  
  
 Pharmacy | LA, USA |  Right | February 17, 2013  
 
 
(I am counseling a customer who is receiving a prescription for her child’s strep throat. As she’s signing for the prescription, I give her directions on the medication.) 
 
Me: “It needs to be shaken well.” 
 
(All of a sudden, she starts shaking the electronic pen that is attached to the signature pad. After a moment she stops.) 
 
Customer: “You meant shake the medicine, didn’t you?”
