Medical Malpractice and Negligence in Chicago, Its Neighboring Communities and The State Of Illinois
Medication errors are one of the most common forms of medical malpractice. A doctor, pharmacist or nurse may make this mistake by:
- Administering the wrong medicine
- Administering or prescribing a medicine that the patient has a known allergy to
- Administering a medicine that has a violent reaction to another medicine the patient is taking
- Prescribing or administering the right medicine in the wrong dosage amount
Some medication errors are minor and may result in uncomfortable side effects and no other true harm. Other medication errors may cause serious injury, irreparable damage or even death.
