A medication error can be caused at a number of points in the prescription delivery chain of events:
- The prescribing physician may neglect to screen for allergies, may prescribe a wrong medication or a wrong dosage.
- Dangerous or defective drugs may be issued by drug manufacturers without sufficient clinical trials or without sufficient warnings.
- A pharmacist may give a customer a wrong medication or wrong dosage.
- A nurse in a nursing home or hospital may administer a drug incorrectly or give the wrong medication.
- An anesthesiologist may deliver a harmful dose of medication while seeking to sedate the patient for surgery.
- An IV-delivered drug delivery system in a hospital may malfunction.
Whatever the circumstances, if you became seriously ill or suffered irreparable damage to any part of your body as a result of a medication error, you are encouraged to talk to a lawyer. Discuss the events that led up to the medication mistake and the harmful effects that may result in permanent disability.
