See How Drugs Get Mixed Up at Pharmacies

Similar labeling, similar names and undertrained technicians, say critics, can lead to medically dangerous mix-ups when prescriptions are filled at pharmacies. ABC News viewer Pam Stockton of Canton, North Carolina says she was given the wrong drug for her foster daughter by a chain pharmacy. Stockton says the pharmacy filled the prescription with the pain medication Tramadol instead of the proper prescription, Trazadone, an anti-depressant and sleep aid. Repeated attempts to get comment from a spokesperson at the chain's headquarters were unsuccessful. (Pam Stockton)
