Perhaps interesting, in Denmark, pharmacies are required by law to offer the lowest priced equivalent medication unless the doctor in his prescription explicitly defined which of the alternatives to use, and even then they're likely to ask why he did specify a pricier alternative.
It's one of the reasons why it takes several years of studying to qualify for working even at the counter, since they have to be able to catch unintended drug-interactions as well as unintended overpricing.
