Phoenix Medication Error Lawyer

Skilled Arizona Medical Malpractice Attorney

Medication errors occur more frequently than most people realize. They account for many medical malpractice claims that have resulted in serious injury, illness and even wrongful death. When we are given medicine, whether it is in the hospital, a healthcare facility or from a pharmacy, we expect that the type of medicine and dosage are safe. In addition, when others know of additional medicines we may be taking we trust that they would know whether a possible deadly or fatal interaction could take place.

Medication errors can include:

If someone who is seen by a doctor is misdiagnosed and given the incorrect medication it can result in an illness, injury or disease becoming even more aggressive or irreversible; possibly resulting in death.

When a pharmacy, doctor or nurse issues the wrong medication, is incorrect in measuring out a medicine, fails to look for possible interactions, or fails to provide proper dosage or instructions it can lead to serious allergic reaction or adverse reactions leading to injury or death.

A prescription that is misinterpreted by others because of a doctor’s illegible handwriting can lead to incorrect medicine, dosages and or instructions causing severe illness, injury or even death.
