Prescribed One Drug & Given Another
If someone is prescribed one drug and given another, the effects can be significant. Mistakes happen especially when two drugs have similar names and look alike. Though they might look the same, two different medications can affect the body in very different ways.
At Metzger & Kleiner, we know that the wrong drug can cause harmful side effects. Our attorneys are ready to guide you through this terrible mishap and seek the compensation you are entitled to.
Incorrect Dosages
If someone is prescribed 5 mg of a heart medication and the pharmacy provides pills containing 50 mg, the person could suffer severe complications. Though doctors can make mistakes in writing prescriptions, a pharmacy may still be held responsible for dispensing a dangerous dosage. It is the pharmacist's job to review all prescriptions and catch these errors. Mix-ups in labels also account for incorrect prescriptions.
