Daytona Beach Medication Error Attorney

Were you given the wrong medication dose?

Medication is prescribed in dosage amounts, which means that a certain amount of medication needs to be taken at a particular time in order to ensure that the patient's health and safety are maintained. In a hospital setting, a health care professional will administer medication doses based on information contained in the patient's medical record. When a patient purchases medication from a pharmacy, dosage instructions are listed on the drug's label. Taking more than the prescribed dose can result in health complications, and taking less than the prescribed dose can impede effective treatment of an illness or injury. Dosage mistakes occur for many reasons, including a health care professional's lack of knowledge about the medication, inaccurate or insufficient patient information, as well as the misreading of a prescription. Medication overdoses and underdoses can both harm a patient, and may lead to serious injuries or worsening of the patient's condition.

If you were injured by a wrong medication dose at a hospital, or because of a Florida pharmacy error such as a Rite-Aid pharmacy error, Walgreens pharmacy error, CVS prescription errors, Wal-Mart prescription errors or Kmart prescription errors, contact a Daytona Beach medication error lawyer at Distasio Law Firm for legal advice. Medical professionals have a duty to properly treat and care for their patients, including ensuring that they receive the right dose of the medications prescribed to them. In injury cases involving a wrong dose or incorrect dosage instructions, a claim can be filed for damages. We will investigate your case to determine who was at fault for your injuries, and we will pursue compensation for your medical expenses, as well as any losses that resulted from the mistake that was made.
