Rx 1: This prescription was a real challenge for Registered Pharmacist Alan J. Arnowitz and his staff at The Medicine Shoppe in Hackensack, NJ. They were up to the task, however. Arnowitz said, "We figured it out without having to call the doctor, but it took 3 heads and a few minutes." Can you figure out this prescription without the help of the physician?
