Default medicine dosage doubled?

Hello there,
Few months ago, my insurance company took my drug store off of the provider list. In the process of changing pharmacies, my blood pressure and stomach medicines were doubled in dosage amounts. I have experienced many of the side effects associated with overdosage. Do I have any legal recourse at all, and how should I proceed?
Thank you.

If the pharmacy is doubling your presecription, they are committing malpractice, not your insurance carrier. The only way your insurance carrier would carry responsibility is if they knew of this pharmacy's track record. Contact your state insurance commissioner and see if that office can help you.
