Briefly, in the four states in which physician-assisted suicide is legal, there is a protocol comprised of several criteria that must be satisfied. Consider the following situation. Britanny has been diagnosed as suffering from terminal cancer. She decides to avail herself of physician-assisted suicide and writes out two requests, appropriately spaced.

Students should provide a detailed analysis of the pros and cons of each side in determining whether the pharmacist may refuse to fill the prescription for Brittany to end her life.
