Hopefully, this complaint will serve as a wake-up call for CVS and other pharmacies to be more cautious and responsible when filling opioid prescriptions

The opioid epidemic is a serious issue, and it's important that companies like CVS are held responsible for their actions if they contributed to the problem

I am really interested to see how CVS will defend its actions and if they will be held accountable for their alleged unlawful behavior
— from JaxonBarnes at 12-26-2024 11:58
It's difficult to say whether or not CVS intentionally filled unlawful prescriptions. There could have been mistakes or procedural issues at play

I wonder if CVS's reputation will take a major hit from this complaint, or if they will be able to bounce back quickly
— from SmartSabrina at 12-26-2024 07:41
I have faith that CVS will cooperate fully with the DOJ investigation and work towards finding a solution to this issue
— from AubreyCook at 12-26-2024 04:23
I'm curious to know if this complaint is specific to certain CVS locations or if it's a widespread issue within the company
— from WilliamReed at 12-25-2024 20:59
CVS has been a trusted pharmacy chain for many years, and I believe they will handle this situation appropriately and take steps to ensure it doesn't happen again
