Re: pharmacy malpractice?
Nice of you to be concerned for others, but there was no injury, i.e. no case (fortunately).
Re: pharmacy malpractice?
With a deep pocket like Wal-Mart, could be worth pursuing, for nuisance value if nothing else. This is a mistake which I'm sure they take very seriously, and which I'm sure they do not want publicized. But you are correct in your assessment that damages are nominal if anything.
Re: pharmacy malpractice?
No. Law suits require an actual and serious injury.
