Kroger Response to Emergency Contraception
ATLANTA, March 9 /PRNewswire/ -- The Kroger Co. believes that
medications are a private patient matter. Our role as a retail pharmacy
operator is to furnish medication using applicable professional standards
in accordance with a doctor's prescription or as requested by a customer.
The Kroger Co. began carrying dual label OTC Plan-B in November of
2006, when the FDA approved it. It is our policy to carry the product in
all of our stores.
If, for whatever reason, an individual pharmacist objects to furnishing
this or any other medication, our policy is to find a way to accommodate
the customer.
We are taking additional steps to make certain that all of our pharmacy
teams have a clear understanding of this policy.
