I know with adults, they usually will give you a pill to get ya going then give a prescription, but perhaps in the case where it's liquid Amoxacillin, they had to whip a full bottle rather than partial.
Here is a free tip that will save you thousands of dollars. Kids freak out because they see the blood. Buy a red washcloth and use that for tending to bleeding wounds.

Tell the wife to toughen up.

And yes, you do have a choice of getting your scrip filled at the hospital or taking it to your pharmacy. You just have to use your head.
