Pharmacy Errors

Pharmaceutical malpractice and pharmacy errors may result from negligence or wrongful conduct on the part of an employee at a pharmacy. A pharmacist may pick up the wrong medication off the shelf and fill a prescription, may misread a doctor’s handwriting and therefore give out the wrong prescription, or may issue the correct medicine but with the wrong dosage instructions. Whatever the particular mistake, the effects can be disastrous.

A victim of a pharmacy error may only experience mild side effects from the medication, or he or she may suffer serious injury or even death. The wrong medicine can violently react with other prescriptions the patient may be taking or may even create a medical condition in an otherwise healthy person. The wrong amount of medicine may prove fatal, particularly in children or infants.
