Sad tale: accidental chemo drug prescription may have led to miscarriage

Bloomberg:

Walgreen Co. has been sued by a Missouri woman and her husband who claim she had a miscarriage after a prescription for prenatal vitamins was filled with a chemotherapy drug carrying a similar brand name.

Walgreens failed to properly supervise pharmacy personnel who dispensed the medicine to Chanda Givens instead of what her doctor prescribed, lawyers for Givens and her husband, Courtenay, said in a complaint filed Tuesday in federal court in St. Louis. Givens had a miscarriage after taking the drug for less than a month.

The difference was between "Materna" and "Matulane."
