I went into the Wal-Mart Pharmacy Connecticut to refill my birth control Prescription in the beginning of October, I had been taking Tri Nessa and the pharmacist gave me Tri Sprinta. I requested that she give me the correct Birth control and she responded with it was the same prescription but they are changing packaging. I trusted the pharmacist and I began to take it for about a week and a half. This pill began to make me extremely sick. I went back to the pharmacy and requested the correct one after two hours of arguing with the pharmacist and going to two different stores to get the correct prescription, i found out she had changed it in the computer on me. The pill was too high of a dose for me and the effects were if I had taken the morning after pill for a week straight. This caused me to vomit for about three weeks and have my period for going on a month now. I had to go to the emergency room to see a doctor because there were no doctors willing to make an appointment for me in a timely manner. Therefore I was forced to work. I also tried contacting the Wal-Mart pharmacy and all they said they would do is make a note to not change my prescription again. They would not put me on the phone with a manager, and gave me a number to call 479-273-8800 which got me no where. I will never go back to this pharmacy. Thank god this was a non life threatening mistake, who know what other medication they are changing and just handing out.
