A woman who dreamed of having a big family and struggled with getting pregnancy was mistakenly given an abortion pill instead of IVF hormones by a CVS pharmacy.
A Las Vegas woman who dreamed of having a big family since her childhood was mistakenly given an abortion pill instead of IVF hormones by a CVS pharmacy, ending her pregnancy, and she said all she got was "sorry." According to a report by 8 News Now, Las Vegas resident Timika Thomas in 2019 wanted to add one more to her family of four. Thomas does not come from a big family, so as an adult, she and her husband wanted to make her dreams of a big family come true.
You have to make yourself think it’s pregnant," Thomas told the 8 News Now Investigators. "We’re taking a lot of supplements to make our bodies think it’s pregnant." Her doctor prescribed a vaginal suppository in place of the injections. Thomas went to her CVS branch pharmacy at W. Craig Road and Camino Al Norte in North Las Vegas. She took two of her required doses and knew something was wrong, 8 News Now reported. "I started cramping really bad," Thomas said.
News Now investigators obtained documents that outline how two technicians and two pharmacists made a series of errors that led to Thomas being given the wrong medication, which essentially terminated her budding pregnancy on the spot. "They just killed my baby," she said to herself at the time. "Both my babies, because I transferred two embryos.
The pharmacy board reportedly fined CVS the maximum amount allowed by statute — $10,000.00 – for its liability of the pharmacists’ errors. 8 News Now reported that an attorney representing CVS in the hearing attempted to distance his client from their one-time employees. "To suspend or take action against a pharmacy license when they really didn’t do anything wrong wasn’t pled they did anything wrong," the attorney said prior to the board imposing the fine.
