A man who forged his medication prescription appeared in Whanganui District Court on Tuesday.
Police told the court Scott Webby had been given a prescription for the ADHD medication ritalin, dated for February 3.
Webby attempted to alter the perscription to February 1 so he could get the medication two days early.
When he handed the document to the pharmacy, the staff there called the police.
He pleaded guilty to one charge of altering a document with intent.
