I have to wonder how it is that you are so sure of what you are saying. Do you work for the state or have some type of priviledge in accessing these records? If so, is this legal? I don't always believe what I read and hear!! The facts may very well be true and then again they may not. I am looking at this open minded and if it were the case that the pharmacy knew then they should be going after their license too! I think that commenting on this issue is healthy but when it consumes your life, it is not right.
I agree that the doctor is the professional. They can only go by what information a patient gives them (in part). Who's to say that he was the only doctor that person was seeing? I do agree that the pharmacy should have had some type of fail safe in place to prevent this from happening. For that fact, the pharmacy is just as guilty as the doctor and should be held accountable as well. Although, I don't agree that the doctor should be held responsible SOLELY for her death....after all, he wasn't the one who pulled the trigger.
I have been reading all of the comments posted. I agree with a lot of the points brought up about who is responsible. Yet, I have to wonder how many of these patient's families knew what was going on! I would think that if your child/spouse had an addiction, it would be their responsiblity to let everyone and anyone know about this!! An addict needs to go to a treatment facility NOT a doctor's office for help!! That would be a signal that perhaps they were drug seeking. People who have cronic issues shouldn't be seeing a family practitioner!! I agree that too many pills may have been prescribed but I'm sure that he's NOT THE ONLY doctor who has been doing this!

To dozer:
I am sorry to hear that one of your family members was part of this ordeal. My heart goes out to you. I understand your anger and fustration. I hope for the families sake that a quick resolution happens cause this is not healthy physically or mentally. Reliving and dewelling on a death only causes more pain and anguish! Perhaps this will bring about regulatory changes and wake these people up!
