she is willing, try and have her eat yogurt with probiotics. It will help her digestion get back to normal.
And/or just give her the little probiotic caplets.

That isn't really a big deal. You are being a drama queen.

you're gonna need to balance out any correctly dosed or not, the antibiotics with probiotics to revive the good bacteria in the gut [ seriously ]
that's how farmers fatten cows, broad spectrum antibiotics, it fattens up the cows real fast...they're not sick, it's just for profits
the doctors can fukk u up too, if you don't know to balance out the gut bacteria...you don't want your daughter hating you if she plumps up from an imbalance do ya?

Not really to go forward with suit, but maybe have him write the pharmacy a letter spelling out their negligence, showing them that it is unacceptable, and that you're "considering" suit.
Pharmacies get stupid threats like this all the time. You'd probably hand it to some technician who would throw it away and then they'd laugh among themselves at your hysterics when you leave. But by all means, give a lawyer some of your hard earned money to draft a meaningless letter so that hourly workers can share a joke at your expense.

One concern that jumps to mind is Crohn's disease / colitis type issues from the antibiotics wiping out all her healthy gut flora.
You do not get Crohn's disease from antibiotics... Crohn's is an autoimmune disease. Certain antibiotics can give you a condition called pseudomembranous colitis... which can be pretty rough...

That's why it's important to read the script and check the bottle.

It likely isn't a big deal in the long run, but it still would make me very angry at the negligence, and it would lessen my trust in that pharmacy, so I would change pharmacies and I would let corporate know exactly WHY. No lawsuit, but we must have high expectations of pharmacists!
When my son was 3 and having a severe asthma attack, the doctor prescribed PediaPred (prednisone, strong steroid) for him, but the pharmacist gave me PediaProfen (children's ibuprofen!!!) That would have done NOTHING to help his asthma and certainly could have been fatal, had I not noticed as soon as I took it out of the bag... I went back and complained and they didn't apologize either. Just snatched it out of my hand and gave me the real meds that could help his asthma. I still get angry thinking about it...some dumb parent who didn't know any better might have been giving their kid that medicine wondering why the kid still couldn't breathe!

yeah, if my son had died from his asthma attack, that would be how I'd take it.... everyone makes mistakes...right

Well that's when you sue and get rich

The pharmacy is basically saying no big deal since she's not having major reaction to it. F them for trying to downplay their mistake

FWIW the situation couldn't have been that severe if he was going home.
Regardless, medical errors are always concerning and shouldn't be taken lightly.
