If all the doctor does is say "here's another dose", then something is wrong, for sure. My experience in needing occasional prescriptions for asthma inhalers (not in the US) has been that the doctor gave me a quick but thorough check up every time to ensure that my condition was not worsening. That's the reasoning behind it. Whether it's a valid reason or not, I don't make a claim either way. But I don't think this level of cynisism that says the doctors only do it for a paycheck is fair or warranted.
