Medication Errors

If You Have Been Harmed by a Medication Error

If you have been harmed by a medication error, your interests are best served by working with a lawyer who can help juries and judges understand the harm caused from your perspective. At Friedman, Domiano & Smith, we are knowledgeable attorneys with a great deal of trial experience. Attorneys at our law office focus on being strong advocates for our clients — presenting their cases in a compelling fashion — so that our clients truly get their day in court.

This approach has helped us achieve a record of success in personal injury and medical malpractice cases, including favorable jury verdicts and settlements for our clients. Regardless of where a medication error occurs — at your local pharmacy, in a hospital or nursing home — you can depend on us for the best possible representation.

There are generally three types of medication errors:

  • Giving too much medication: Whether a nurse read your chart incorrectly or a pharmacist incorrectly filled a prescription, receiving the wrong dosage of medication can be a very serious medication error leading to drug overdose, liver failure, kidney failure, respiratory depression and wrongful death.
  • Giving the wrong kind of medication: When the wrong medication is administered, patients affected face two kinds of harm. Not only can your body be damaged by possible complications and drug allergies, but the condition for which the medication was prescribed is not being treated.
  • Failing to give medication when it is needed: Patients in facilities like hospitals and nursing homes depend on health care providers to dispense prescribed medication when needed. When providers fail to do so, they commit medical malpractice. This can lead to serious consequences, especially when patients have conditions like diabetes, which need constant monitoring and treatment.
