I looked up the laws for syringes in New Hampshire, and it said that OTC sales of 10 or less syringes in pharmacies were legal (Prescription law excludes <11 syringes for adults). So I decided to see what would happen if I went to 3 different pharmacies to buy rigs.
At RiteAid, the first time I went, the male pharmacist sold me rigs after checking my ID and giving me a pamphlet on health and saftey. The next time I went to RiteAid, the female pharmacist got all mad when I asked and said she would not sell them over the counter (when I told her that her coworker sold them to me, she said "well I thought we were all on the same page about this but I will NOT sell them.")
At CVS, the woman said that they would not sell rigs OTC without a perscription, but referred me to Walgreens because they did.
At Walgreens, I got syringes with no questions asked, no ID needed.
Is it legal for pharmacists to refuse to sell rigs OTC if state laws say its legal? And is what happened in RiteAid, with one pharmacist selling them and one refusing to, legal also?
