Seeking Compensation for Medication Dispensing Errors
Pharmacy errors have many causes, including understaffing, outdated technology and simple negligence. When pharmacies and pharmacists do not live up to their professional responsibilities, they can be held accountable for errors such as the following:
- Wrong medication: A pharmacist's most important duty is to ensure that patients receive the medications their doctors have prescribed. Dispensing the wrong drug is a serious error that can have severe consequences for the patient.
- Wrong doses: A patient who receives an overdose or too little of a prescribed drug can suffer serious harm and even death. This may be the result of a pharmacist providing the wrong size pills, measuring out the wrong doses or providing incorrect instructions.
- Drug interactions: Pharmacies are supposed to have programs to detect when a patient is being given drugs that are dangerous in combination with each other. This is particularly likely to happen when a patient is prescribed drugs by multiple doctors.
If you have been harmed or lost a loved one as a result of a pharmacy error, our medical malpractice lawyers will carefully evaluate the facts of your case so we can seek the compensation you deserve. Let us put our experience and passion to work for you.
