It seems I've been lucky, though: I've never been given a wrongly filled prescription (or that I know of, at least). Having heard your experiences, I think I'll be more cautious about comparing the tablets against the description for new RXs in the future.Not a bad idea. Especially if it's a new Rx, or the pills look different than list time. Most of the time, it's just a different generic, but it never hurts to check before you leave the pharmacy.
