Cultural Addendum

Apparently, the pharmacy won't order more of a medication until they run out. Not "I opened the last bottle we have, better make sure we order more", no. "I just gave the last 3 pills of Cipro out, put it on the list to order." This can lead to some problems, obviously. One of the doctors apparently has taken to hiding a bottle or two of some of the very commonly used ones so when they think they're "out" and order, they're not really out.
