Prescription drugs are powerful medicine. Pharmaceutical products can cure disease and provide relief from symptoms. When used incorrectly, however, they can be extremely dangerous or even fatal.

Protect Yourself From Prescription Errors

Read our newsletter article to learn how to protect yourself and your family from prescription or pharmacy errors.

At Kinerk, Beal, Schmidt, Dyer & Sethi, our attorneys know that medication mistakes can occur in a number of ways. For example:

  • Drug overdose
  • Failure to administer adequate pain medication
  • Wrong prescription or wrong dosage
  • Pharmacist misreads the prescription
  • Failure to account for prescription interactions
  • Failure to account for prescription allergies
  • Failure of medication delivery systems (pumps, IVs, etc.)

Were you given another patient's medication instead of the one intended for you? Did you suffer physical harm because the pharmacist could not read the doctor's handwriting?

Our medical malpractice lawyers have successfully represented clients who have suffered serious injury or death due to medication errors. We also represent the survivors of those who have died a wrongful death because of drug-related errors. For example:

A businessman from Nogales checked into a hospital for simple rotator cuff surgery and was administered too much pain medication, which resulted in heart failure and death. We negotiated a confidential settlement for his surviving family.
