Today, my girlfriend told me that she is pregnant. I asked how it could be possible, since she's on birth control. She said she didn't know her antibiotics would interfere with it. She's a pharmacist. FML

Just because she's a pharmacist, doesn't means she's a good one.

Birth control also is not 100% effective

however, at about 99.9% effective, it's pretty damn close (assuming the woman remembers to take it, and is NOT a dumbass taking antibiotics OP's girlfriend)

@118 uh, no, it's not 99% effective. Different methods/products of birth control act differently and have different levels of effectiveness. You can't just make blanket statements about a group like that.

Stop being so gullible, OP. A pharmacist's job and most of what they learn in their graduate schooling is which medications interact with each other and HOW they interact. She lied. She's either cheating, or wanted a baby and didn't want to tell you.

Technically if he wanted to be a real ass he doesn't even need to be stuck communicating with her for the rest of his life. Not the recommended option but it is still a possibility.

a lot of pharmacists don't know how certain things with react with others. they just measure out and sell the medicines.

Then they are a shitty pharmacist... Their job is to know the different interactions between the medications, not just to give them out...

#39 if a nurse needs to know what drugs will interact with what, then a pharmacist most definitely needs to know about interactions.

They have to go to school to be a pharmacist. and there, they learn what drugs interact with what. that information is vital

Pharmacists actually have a better idea of what interacts with what than doctors, usually. It's usually the pharmacist that tells a person when a doctor has prescribed them two conflicting medications. That's part of their job. So yeah, as a pharmacist she should have known better.

In all actuality the pharmacist can know every prescription every single person takes especially when the average person taking the prescription doesn't even know Half the names of half the prescriptions they take. A pharmacist can only do so much. And many antibiotics don't interfere with birth control anymore and in all actuality it isn't even known how certain antibiotics react to prove birth control ineffective.

Her doctor would of told her that it was possible. She should be telling her customers that is it possible. You can't change the past, just remember to check the babies medication for suitability.

Sorry to say OP but i think she really wanted a baby.. and this whole antibiotic drama is just to convince you. This is a very common thing and evryone knw about this drug interaction..and she being a pharmacist must be knowing this well which she is using as a weapon to escape..

Not all pharmacists know every little detail about every little drug. But if she's taking antibiotics you'd at least thing she would have looks up the side effects and whatnot.
