Pharmacist Dispensed My Meds Incorrectctly . Any Idea What These Pills Are?

Updated

When I went to take my medication this am that had been refilled the tablet was something else. Should have been and was labelled Novo Carbamazapine 200mg. It was a medium sized white convex tablet with a "N" on one side and "100" on the other. Scored in half once. It was some sort of psychiatric medication. Any idea what it was??

Hello, Mimi! How are you? Have you contacted your pharmacy about the error?

From what I can find, this tablet actually contains 100mgs of Chlorpromazine, which is an antipsychotic. Side effects can include ECG changes, nausea, weight gain and somnolence.

Thank you for the reply! When I called about it I was told not to take and to come in. They were replaced with the correct medication. They were quite apologetic. Mistakes happen, I guess. Surprising though and a reminder to be vigilant about your medication.

The med she listed is the one she was expecting. She was asking what the other med might be, not what was in the one she listed
