MEDICATION MISTAKE LAWYERS
When doctors tell you to take medication they must be sure that that the correct medication is being prescribed and that these medications will not harm you. Pharmacists are also highly responsible for the medications you take. They must be sure that the correct dosage of medication is given to you and that they are giving you the correct medication. When these trusted providers make prescription medication mistakes it could cause you or a loved catastrophic injury or even death.
Both doctors and pharmacists should also give clear instructions on how to take the medication. Without obtaining this information you face severe consequences as a result of a medication error. If you’re the victim of a medication mistake, our Pennsylvania medication error lawyers can help.
COMMON CAUSES OF MEDICATION ERRORS
Prescription medication mistakes cause at least one death every day and over a million injuries per year according to the Food and Drug Administration.
