Pharmacies are required to upload info on tightly controlled dispensed prescriptions to a statewide database--names, dates, etc. Not only will your insurance know (if you have insurance and the pharmacy attempts to apply coverage), but physicians are able to download this information on when, what, and to whom something was dispensed, mainly their own patients.
But wait, there's more! Some states allow physicians in others to tap their database. Assuming the physician knows which state to which to inquire, they'd find out whether or not you filled the extra prescription.
