Julie Cantor and Ken Baum | The Limits of Conscientious Objection-May Pharmacists Refuse to Fill Prescriptions for Emergency Contraception?
Cantor and Baum present detailed arguments for and against giving pharmacists the right to refuse emergency contraception to patients. They also discuss the dilemma pharmacists face in balancing their medical obligations to patients, such as duty to care, with their own moral beliefs. Since courts have ruled that moral objections must be balanced with the burden imposed on others, they conclude that pharmacists who object to filling prescriptions for emergency contraception should be required to provide alternatives for patients.
-An argument by analogy in support of allowing pharmacists to block prescriptions for emergency contraception is that
A) pharmacists must concur with the other members of a patient's medical team.
B) pharmacists act paternalistically toward their patients.
C) society does not force lawyers, doctors, and nurses to abandon their personal beliefs.
D) we expect lawyers, doctors, and nurses to abandon their personal beliefs when providing service for clients and patients.
