Class Action Pharmacy Lawsuit Case Below:

Urgent Care Pharmacy located in Spartanburg, South Carolina is suspected of producing a contaminated steroid pain injection that so far has caused three people to contract fungal meningitis, one of whom has died.

State and federal health authorities believe the injections may have been contaminated with the fungus, wangiella dermatitidis, during its production. The tainted drugs were then shipped to pain clinics in five states including North Carolina. The North Carolina clinics were located in Jacksonville, Pinehurst and Goldsboro.

Please note: Complaints about pharmacists, pharmacies, and other entities registered by the State Board of Pharmacy are handled through administrative proceedings required by law. These proceedings are not equivalent to a trial in court. The Board of Pharmacy takes action based upon the files and records brought before it. Court review of its decisions may occur at a later time.

The Process for the Parties

Persons wishing to file a complaint against a licensed pharmacy intern, a pharmacist or pharmacy business in the state may do so by completing the complaint form from state board or by writing a letter to the Board, detailing precisely what events occurred that appeared to involve unethical or unprofessional conduct on the part of the pharmacy intern, a pharmacist or pharmacy business. Unprofessional conduct includes, but is not limited to, incompetence, negligence and/or malpractice. If the complaining party (complainant) has written documentation of what occurred, or has copies of the medical records of the animal involved, those should also be submitted for Board consideration.

After the Board receives the complaint, the Board is required to send that information to the pharmacy intern, a pharmacist or pharmacy business (respondent) being complained about, and ask for the pharmacy intern, a pharmacist or pharmacy business's response to the complaint information. The pharmacy intern, a pharmacist or pharmacy business is instructed to send all pertinent medical documents in the case for the Board's review.

At this point in the process, no further responses from the parties are accepted by the Board. The matter is placed on the next agenda for Board review and decision-making.
