A pharmacy in Woodbury, New Jersey, is under investigation after being accused of mishandling patients' prescriptions, according to police.
Investigators say the Woodbury Family Pharmacy disregarded patient requests to stop filling their prescriptions, continuing to fill them despite being asked not to.
According to police, a pharmacist allegedly provided patients with the wrong dosages and handed over packages that had broken safety seals or were missing pills.
Police also raised concerns about the state of the sanitary conditions tied to the case, adding to the questions surrounding how the pharmacy was being run.
Authorities said the investigation into the pharmacy was ongoing, as they worked to determine the full scope of what patients may have received.
Cases involving prescription errors are treated seriously because patients rely on pharmacies to provide the correct medication, in the right dose and safely sealed.
