Am i being unreasonable? Pharmacy wrong dosage

[najs89]

Am I being unreasonable as there was no harm done?
I was about to pack my daughters new medication to give to her nursery. When I coincidentally read the label to which I realised the sticker had the wrong dosage. (It's over double the amount she has been prescribed). After research discovered that dose is for 12+ Years... my daughter is 10 months old!!! I'm so angry and upset. The medication is for allergies so if she needed it, it would have been in an emergency and it's unlikely the nursery would have thought twice about it and I dread to think the consequences. I'm going to phone the pharmacy and check the fault is there's and not the consultant but assuming it is considering she's had the medication before but at a much lower dose.

I have this happen to me.
It really shouldn’t as there should be two people checking.

Ask to speak to the pharmacy manager to clarify what happened, although tbh, the pharmacist dispensing it should have noticed the age and the dosage error even if the actual prescription was wrong.

You can complain officially-I didn’t but I do wish I’d told the miserable assistant who said ‘well that’s a waste, we have to throw that out now’ that I shouldn’t even have been given it as it’s not on my prescription

Not unreasonable, it's a mistake that could be really dangerous with the wrong person or the wrong medication. No need to get angry at anyone over it, but make sure both the pharmacy manager and your GP know what happened.
