i believe stealing it would be the ethical option.
The only unethical one is the man selling the drug at too high of a price and denying innocents the option to save their life because this guy is too much of a cheap ass.
Steal it. I would steal it. And hopefully condemn this guy to hell.

Theft is theft and it's wrong in that sense for him to steal the drug, but he should still do it. Right and wrong =/= black and white.

Down is the other direction.

I do not see why he wouldn't steal the medicine. What matters more to him. The overpriced, demanding durggist or his ailing wife? Ethically and morally, I would place the value of his wifes' life over that of the monetary earnings of a druggist. My opinion is that when one puts one moral over another, it is possible to find solace in abiding by one and ignoring the other.

What if that druggist needs the money for an operation on his own wife that's otherwise going to die?

 Is there a plausible reason that person should be allowed to die?

No, it wouldn't. If it's God's wish that they die, they WILL die, there is no way to "prevent" that.
