In my opinion, there are various moral actions that Dr. Simmons can apply and among them is continuing to prescribe the altered drug to the patient until she is free from the addiction since the consequentialism ethical theory claims that the outcome of an action determines its morality. The consequentialism theory argues that the only way an individual can effectively judge the morality of an action is through analyzing its outcome (Yazdani, Naveed, and Hasan 23). Therefore, Dr. Simmons should continue prescribing the drug that has already been altered by the pharmacist in order to correct the addiction problem of her patient. The reason is that the end product or the consequence of the action is making the patient free from the addiction
