Pharmacy error injuries can easily lead to a wide range of medical complications. Complications are unwanted effects of an existing disease. In general, diseases and injuries compromise a person’s health for developing further illnesses. Some complications are quickly signaled by noticeable side effects while others are not evident for months or even years. It is best to prevent medical complications by making sure you are taking proper care of existing injuries and that your prescriptions are up to date. The injury must have caused either economic or emotional damage. Economic damages may include medical bills or lost wages. Patients who suffer long-lasting physical injuries may be able to receive non-economic compensation for pain and suffering. Grayson and Grayson law firm has pharmacy malpractice lawyers in Los Angeles who can help review your case, and file a lawsuit to recover the damages.
Common occurrences that may constitute pharmacy malpractice include:
• Overlooking possible interactions or allergies
• Dispensing the wrong medication, often one with a similar name or appearance
• Mixing up prescriptions, giving the medication to the wrong person
• Misreading a prescription or misunderstanding dosage
• Dispensing an incorrect dosage
• Mistakes in compounding that lead to improper medications or dosage
• Problems with the usage directions or other information
• Neglecting to print warnings about possible interactions
In order to have a successful pharmacy malpractice case, you must have evidence to support your negligence claim. To prove this type of case, there are four specific elements that pharmacy malpractice lawyers in Los Angeles look to establish:
• You and the pharmacist had a valid relationship. You trusted the pharmacist to fill your prescription, or otherwise provide medical advice based on your health conditions and prescriptions
• The pharmacist failed to provide the accepted standard of care for pharmacists, i.e., they acted negligently
• This breach of standard of care caused you to become ill, caused injury, or led to your pain and suffering.
• You suffered actual damages because of the pharmacist’s negligence.
These lawsuits require a comprehensive knowledge of pharmacology and an understanding of the adverse effects that drugs can cause when taken inappropriately. If a pharmacy error has happened to you, you may have a pharmaceutical liability claim.
