- The pharmacy gave you the wrong type of medication.
- The pharmacy dispensed the wrong dosage.
- They gave you incomplete or incorrect instructions.
- The pharmacist failed to check if you have any health conditions that could lead to adverse side effects.
- The pharmacist failed to check if you are allergic to the drug.
Why Should I Contact a Houston Pharmacy Malpractice Attorney?
Although the conditions of pharmacy malpractice may seem straightforward, there are several conditions an attorney can assess to determine whether you have a case worth pursuing. These conditions include:
- You relied on the pharmacist to offer you advice on the correct prescription for you and fill it.
- A duty of care existed and the pharmacist did not fulfill it.
- Their duty of care breach resulted in your sickness or injury.
- That breach of duty caused damages to you.
