D'oh...
"Her doctor recommended she take the drug *after she miscarried* about
five weeks into her pregnancy, enabling her to avoid undergoing a more
invasive procedure. But Misoprostol can also be used with Mifepristone
to end a pregnancy in its early stages. She suspects that it was for
that reason that the store refused her prescription without providing a
reason.
While she was able to obtain the medication somewhere else, she brought
the issue up again when visiting the store to fill out a separate
prescription.
“She looks at my name and she says ‘Oh, well, I couldn’t think of a
valid reason why you would need this prescription,’” Cartrett said. “I
tell her my reasons for needing it, and she says ‘Well, I don’t feel
like there is a reason why you would need it, so we refused to fill it.’”
A pharmacist for the store, Sandip Patel, told WGXA that under state
law, pharmacists are able to turn down prescriptions. A Walmart
spokesperson said the company encourages its pharmacists to “use their
professional judgement” on a case-by-case basis."

Try reading for comprehension. The pharmacist had no valid reason for
denying her the medication. She had already suffered a miscarriage...and
she did obtain the Rx elsewhere.
Religious crackpots...they're destroying this country.
