Dangerous Drugs

Every year over 1.3 million people across the US are injured by pharmaceutical mistakes such as:

• Drug Side Effects
• Incorrect Labeling
• Incorrect Dosage
• Incorrect Prescription
• Drug Interactions and Complications

In some cases, these mistakes can be grounds for a Philadelphia medication error lawsuit.

Who Can File a Suit?

If you or a member of your family has been injured by some kind of medicine, you may have grounds for a personal injury suit. Depending on the type of error committed, the defendant may be a doctor, hospital worker, pharmaceutical company, or pharmacist. It is not always easy to trace an injury back to the party who caused it, but a qualified attorney can help.

In order to win your case, you will need to show that the defendant failed to meet some duty of care towards you. Some examples include a doctor who prescribed the wrong medicine, or a pharmaceutical company that failed to publish the dangers of a certain drug. Different people will have a different duty of care towards you, so experienced legal advice is important.
