Wrong Prescription Claims

Millions of prescriptions are successfully made by doctors and medical staff every year. But as much as we like to rely on doctors and hospitals to always take good care of us, sometimes medical professionals make mistakes and these include prescription errors. The side effects of taking the wrong medication can be severe and include illness, injuries and even death.

Wrong prescription claims arise for a number of reasons. These include:

•    Incorrect medication prescribed by the doctor
•    Wrong medication dispensed by the pharmacist
•    Incorrect dosage set
•    Patient allergy to the prescribed drugs despite notes on allergy in medical records
•    Wrong strength of medication
•    Mislabelling of drugs with incorrect instructions  
•    Medication given alongside other already prescribed drugs
•    Medication prescribed for too long
