                         AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO SCHEDULE 13D

         Dennis M. Jones and Judith A. Jones reported the acquisition of shares
of Common Stock, par value $.04 per share ("Stock"), of JONES PHARMA
INCORPORATED, a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"), in an initial filing of
this Schedule 13D on April 20, 1999 as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1
to Schedule 13D dated April 3, 2000. The Cover Page, Page 2 and Items 5, 6 and 7
are hereby amended as follows. All other items are unchanged from the initial
filing.


ITEM 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a,b) As of July 13, 2000, Dennis M. Jones (and/or his revocable trust) is
deemed to own beneficially an aggregate of 5,036,242 shares of Common Stock of
the Issuer, excluding shares held by Judith A. Jones, representing 7.7% of the
Issuer's Common Stock. Such holdings include 972,000 shares currently under
option to Mr. Jones from the Issuer which are presently exercisable. Mr. Jones
has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to such shares.

         As of July 13, 2000, Judith A. Jones (and/or her revocable trust) is
deemed to own beneficially an aggregate of 2,540,107 shares of the Common Stock
of the Issuer, excluding shares held by Dennis M. Jones, representing 3.9% of
the Issuer's Common Stock. Such holdings include 243,000 shares currently under
option to Mrs. Jones from the Issuer which are presently exercisable. Mrs. Jones
has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to such shares.

(c)      Neither Mr. or Mrs. Jones has had any transactions in the Issuer's
Common Stock within the 60 days preceding the filing of this Amendment No. 2 to
Schedule 13D.

(d)(e)   Not applicable.

ITEM 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to
Securities of the Issuer.


         On July 13, 2000, the Issuer and King Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("King")
jointly announced an agreement pursuant to which the Issuer would merge with a
subsidiary of King in a transaction intended to qualify as a tax-free
reorganization and be accounted for on a pooling of interests basis. In
connection with that transaction, each share of the Issuer's Common Stock would
be converted into and exchanged for 1.125 shares (subject to possible
adjustment) of the common stock of King. The agreement between the Issuer and
King was unanimously approved by the Issuer's directors, including the
undersigned.

         As a condition to the execution and delivery of the agreement between
the Issuer and King, each director of the Issuer (including all persons who are
executive officers of the Issuer) entered into an agreement (the "Jones Voting
Agreement") with King and its subsidiary pursuant to which such persons,
including the undersigned, severally agreed to vote the shares of the Issuer
owned (including any after-acquired shares) in favor of the merger transaction
and further agreed not to make any sales or otherwise dispose of any such shares
during the term of the Jones Voting Agreement unless the transferee of such
shares agreed to be bound by the Jones Voting Agreement. The Jones Voting
Agreement relates to an aggregate of 6,986,946 shares of the Issuer's Common
Stock held by such persons as of that date (not including the presently
exercisable options held by Mr. and Mrs. Jones relating to an aggregate of
1,215,000 additional shares).

         In the event that the merger transaction is approved and consummated,
options held by Mr. and Mrs. Jones covering an aggregate number of shares equal
to an additional 303,750 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock will become
immediately exercisable. Such shares are not presently reflected as beneficially
owned for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act since the
date upon which such option will become exercisable is presently indeterminable.

         In addition to the Jones Voting Agreement, each of Mr. and Mrs. Jones
have entered into Affiliate Agreements with King and the Issuer pursuant to
which the undersigned have agreed not to effect any sale or other disposition of
shares of the Issuer's Common Stock (or shares of King into which such stock is
converted upon consummation of the merger) in a manner or at a time which would
conflict with the restrictions applicable to affiliates of parties to a pooling
of interests transaction or which would otherwise jeopardize pooling of
interests accounting treatment for the merger. Assuming the merger is
consummated, such restriction will remain in effect until 2 days following the
date upon which King has first announced post-merger operating results covering
at least a thirty day period of the combined operations of King and the Issuer.

         The Stock Redemption Agreement dated as of August 25, 1998, between Mr.
and Mrs. Jones and the Issuer previously reported in response to Item 6 of this
Schedule 13D (as originally filed) will remain in effect upon consummation of
the merger and will be applicable to shares of the common stock of King held by
Mr. and Mrs. Jones.

ITEM 7.  Material to be Filed as Exhibits.


Exhibit 1:        Rule 13d-1(k)(1) Joint Filing Agreement.
Exhibit 2:        Jones Voting Agreement
Exhibit 3:        Form of Jones Affiliate Agreement


         After reasonable inquiry, and to the best of the undersigneds'
knowledge and belief, the undersigned certify that the information set forth in
this statement is true, complete and correct.
