Massachusetts Medication Errors
Every year, well over one million Americans are victims of prescription errors made by doctors, nurses, pharmacists and drug manufacturers. Massachusetts medication errors account for approximately a quarter of Massachusetts medical malpractice cases. The most common Massachusetts medication error is the failure to administer the proper dosage. Other common causes of Massachusetts medication error injuries include:
- Dangerous drug interactions due to improper patient records and information
- Improper diagnosis
- Improper drug labeling
- Incorrect dosage
- Incorrect prescription
- Miscommunication among medical health professionals and pharmacists
- Misdiagnosis
Taking the wrong medication for your condition may be very dangerous and even life-threatening. If you receive an incorrect medication and suffer damage because of it, you may have a claim against a number of Massachusetts health care providers, including the Massachusetts physician who prescribed the medication, the Massachusetts pharmacy that filled the prescription or the Massachusetts nurses who were responsible for administering the drug.
