14. Perhaps
but aren't pharmacies a bit 19th Century, anyway? Having a big storefront where people count pills from the big bottle into the little bottle is kind of inefficient, in my view. Yeah, yeah, they look out for drug interactions, but they do it with computers that your doctor should be able to use just as well when writing that 'script. Especially when we're talking about maintenance doses of the same drugs over and over, there's no reason to have a pharmacist handling those every month. Some machine in backwoods America can count pills into a bottle and ship off a three month supply at much less cost.
