@Mrs. Jump Rope: This is an awful story but I'm with you. I would never take something based on third party recommendation, ESPECIALLY whilst pregnant! I would be checking everything I could, including reading the prescription info sheet, to make sure it was safe for pregnancy. I also look at a pill every time I take one to make sure it is the correct pill. There are always some kind of markings on a pill to indicate what it might be.
I don't mean to say this is the woman's fault, what her boyfriend did was terrible, but I think she was a bit irresponsible by not doing her own research (ie calling the doctor, reading the prescription box, asking more questions etc) before just popping any old pill. Didn't she even want to know what kind of an infection she had and/or how long it was going to take to clear up etc? I just think people need to exhibit some level of personal responsibility when it comes to their health. But I do feel for her, this is truly awful.

@HabesBabe: His dad owns a clinic. He came up with a fairly plausible story and she took the "medication". Sounds like he will be doing some time. I find it incredibly sad that some people are blaming the victim here. Sounds like unfortunately, professional and personal lines were blurred here with the guy's family's role in it. Are they held to account for prescribing something like this for a woman against her will?
This is one messed up story!

@Mrs. Jacks: I agree. I'm actually in shock that anyone would place blame on the victim.
