The son of a San Antonio man has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against a far-west-side H-E-B pharmacy, claiming his father died of a heart attack due to “medical negligence” from the company.
The lawsuit claims 79-year-old Jerrold Allen visited the H-E-B pharmacy at 14325 Potranco Road on Dec. 7, 2023, to pick up blood-thinner medication sent by his doctor. According to the lawsuit, Allen was “erroneously informed” that H-E-B could not dispense the medication, and that he was advised to go home and wait for his prescription to arrive by mail.
