Medication Errors

Medication Errors

     Medications are a necessary part of protecting us from illness and disease. But, medications can also cause harmful and debilitating reactions if not used, prescribed, or dispensed properly.

     The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality reports, “Nearly 1 out of 10 Computerized Prescriptions Contain an Error”. Medication errors can be deadly.

     Some drugs also have special “black box” warning labels on their containers. The “black box” is a warning to those that take the medication.

     If you have suffered a harmful reaction to a prescription medication, either because of the medication itself, the physician who prescribed it or the pharmacy that filled the prescription, we can protect your rights and pursue legal action to compensate you for an injury.

     If you have suffered a harmful reaction to a medication while a patient in a hospital, we can protect your rights and pursue legal action to compensation you for your injury.
