A pharmacy error in Florida can turn a routine prescription into a nightmare, causing serious issues like organ damage or allergic reactions for you or a loved one. Pharmacy mistakes, such as wrong medication or dosage, lead to pain, fear, and rising medical bills. Kaiser Romanello Accident & Injury Attorneys understand your distress. Our Florida pharmacy malpractice attorneys, including skilled medical malpractice attorneys and injury lawyers, fight negligent pharmacies for fair compensation, with no fees unless we win. We provide compassionate guidance through your medical malpractice claim.
The Severe Consequences of Medication Errors
Medication errors, including prescription errors like dispensing wrong medication or dosage, can cause severe side effects, allergic reactions, or worsened conditions. Medication errors harm at least 1.5 million people annually in the U.S., with pharmacies often at fault (AMCP.org).
Common Impacts:
- Medical expenses from hospital stays, emergency medical attention, and therapy for drug interactions.
- Emotional trauma, eroding trust in healthcare professionals and medical professionals.
- Physical harm like hemorrhage or impairment from mislabeled prescription drugs.
Family Toll:
- Financial strain from lost wages and reduced earning capacity.
- Grief in wrongful death cases from pharmaceutical errors.
Kaiser Romanello’s medical malpractice lawyers build strong cases to cover losses, holding responsible parties accountable in Miami, Orlando, and beyond.
Why Pharmacy Malpractice Claims Get Denied
Pharmacies and insurance companies deny claims to avoid payouts, often blaming prescribing doctors or your medical history. Florida law requires proving breach of duty of care, with a two-year statute of limitations from injury discovery.
Common Tactics:
- Arguing the pharmacy error caused no harm despite side effects like loss of consciousness.
- Delaying to exploit time limits on your medical malpractice claim.
Our Approach:
- Gathering medical records, prescription details, and expert testimony.
- Countering defenses to secure compensation for injuries, unlike in a car accident case.
Research shows error rates around 5% of prescriptions, with 0.18% severe (SLA.org). Our Florida pharmacy malpractice attorneys investigate to prove negligence in Miami, Orlando, West Palm Beach, and statewide.
Common Types of Medication Errors in Florida
Medication errors in Florida stem from negligence in handling prescribed medication and prescription drugs:
- Wrong Medication: Leading to allergic reactions or dangerous side effects.
- Wrong Dosage: Causing overdose or under-treatment impairment.
- Labeling Errors: Failing to warn about drug interactions or provide proper instructions.
- Other Issues: Inadequate review of medical history or defective products.
