Trusting your Pharmacy
When a Prescription Error Causes Serious Injury

Like many Americans, you depend on your medication to keep you healthy and free from serious medical conditions like a heart attack, stroke, or blood clots. You also depend on your local pharmacy to provide you with the correct medication based on your doctor's prescription. But what happens when you suffer a serious injury because of a prescription or pharmacy error?

What Are Pharmacy Errors?

When you go into the pharmacy every single month to pick up the same prescription at the same place, you don't expect to run into any issues. You have no reason to believe that your prescription bottle does not contain your medication in the correct dosage. You should feel confident that the medicine you are receiving in the hospital is meant for you. But accidents happen.

Why Do These Errors Happen?

We all know that pharmacy errors and prescription errors are just that - errors. But it does not mean that you should have to pay for the injury that the error caused. Oftentimes, since nurses and pharmacists are required to work long, non-traditional hours, fatigue and inattention can sink in, leaving the risk for error. However, it is still their job to take care of patients and provide them with the medication they need, even if the patient has the same birthday as another customer or a similar-sounding name.
