Nurse coordinator: Happy, do you need some free Miralax samples?
Happy: I don't think so. But where did all those free Miralax samples come from?
Nurse Coordinator: The drug companies send them to us. We don't really have a need for them. We usually donate them to the free medical clinic. But my mom says they're great for travel because they come in individualized doses and you don't need to carry an entire bottle with you.
Happy: Huh. I think I'm good.
Being a hospitalist has its benefits. We're always getting free constipation medication samples in the mail. Apparently by the truck load. What do you think? Take them home and give them to friends and family for Christmas travel plans or donate them to a free clinic?
