Houston Medical and Pharmaceutical Negligence Lawyers

Modern medicine advancements have provided people with illnesses and alignments with a wide variety of resources in medication. The pharmacists who fill their prescriptions have a huge and important job. A job that has little room for error because of the severe consequences errors can have on a person’s life and health. Part of a pharmacist’s job is making sure the medication a person is taking won’t cause a reaction in the patient. This means the pharmacist needs to be knowledgeable of medications and the risks of mixing certain medications.

According to the Center for Disease Control, 82% of Americans are prescribed at least one medication while 29% are prescribed at least five or more. The increase in the consumption of medication means pharmacists have a higher risk of making an error. Errors like:

• Incorrect dosage
• Giving a person the wrong medication
• Failure to educate individual on the side effects of medication
• Labeling medication incorrectly
• Failure to give written instructions for administering the drug
• Mixing medications

A 2011 report revealed that there are over 4 billion prescriptions written in America. Shockingly, the FDA has a record of 1.3 million people sustain injuries every year from the aforementioned pharmacy errors. Our pharmacy malpractice attorneys at Attorney José S. López have represented countless individuals who have been hurt or even killed because of pharmacy errors.
