I guess, it kind of makes sense though. I do hate the whole 'one bad apple ruins the whole bunch' but if they did nothing there'd be outrage too so yeah I personally don't have a huge problem with it, but then we have a HCC and a bulk-billing dr so just takes us a bit more time. be annoying to pay an extra $50 for the dr visit. It'd probably just make it easier to buy 30 when you need then than pay the dr fee for a few extra tabs.
It makes it really inconveniant, like when they stopped over the counter sale of cold and flu medicine, but I personally like that they are limiting availability of addicitive drugs. Now if only they'd make cigarettes/tobacco prescription only...
