Pharmacy Errors

Pharmacy Dispensing Errors in Los Angeles

Not all medication or prescription errors are related to malpractice or errors on the part of a doctor, nurse or hospital. At times, the pharmacy dispensing the medicine may make a mistake and provide a patient with the wrong medicine, improper instructions, or the wrong dosage amount. Pharmacy errors can result in adverse side effects and violent or even deadly reactions to a medication. Los Angeles pharmacies may deal with more than a thousand patients in a single day. Although most pharmacists are well-trained and competent professionals, it is only a matter of time before a mistake occurs.

Is Your Prescription Not What the Doctor Ordered?

Pharmacy errors may affect prescription refills as well as new medications. If you pick up a refilled prescription from the pharmacy and the medication looks different, don't hesitate to question whether it is correct. If you have already taken your medication and you experience adverse side effects, it is important to seek medical care as soon as possible. It may be that you have been the victim of a pharmacy error and that your prescription is not what the doctor ordered. By acting quickly, you may be able to avoid further complications.
