Explanation

Pharmacy policies and procedures protect patients, and they are built around important pharmacy standards. Regulators enforce those standards to help keep patients safe, so failing to follow required procedures can lead to penalties. Patients’ expectations and respect for authority may matter, but they are not the main reasons penalties are assessed; physicians do not enforce pharmacy compliance.
