Order Description

Case Study-A Pharmaceutical salesperson

A pharmaceutical salesperson has just brought in a supply of nonprescription vitamin samples for the physicians in your practice to dispense to their patients.

The other staff members take the samples home for their families\’ personal use. They tell you to do the same since the samples will become outdated before the physicians can use all of them. It would save you money.

3. Is your action ethical? Why or why not?

4. Does your physician/employer have any responsibility for the dispensing of these free non-prescription vitamins? Explain your answer.
