Trudi, for a long time birth control pills were considered an elective item and wouldn't even be considered except at full price.
I think the nonsense with penicillin here is that many doctors try to do the "overkill" because they feel people have become resistant to antibiotics because they don't use them properly. Many will take enough to make the problem go away but not finish the entire course prescribed. they hoard the rest and use them to self medicate for something else in the future. This is claimed to cause resistance so the latest and greatest is prescribed. I don't always buy that excuse.
