We all know you can claim for doctors’ errors, accidents in the work place and other personal injury related accidents, but did you know there have been many cases where an injured party has claimed for pharmaceutical errors.

Like in the occurrence of a medical error, an error in the medication prescribed by a pharmacist can have serious consequences, such as illness, injury or even death.

Pharmaceutical errors occur when there is an error in the medication you are given by a pharmacist. The error could be with the actual medication or an error in the prescribed dose, but either way there can be very negative effects. There are also cases of patients being given a different medicine or dosage from the pharmacist in comparison to what was prescribed by your doctor.

A common situation in pharmaceutical errors is when medicines are prescribed without a doctor’s prescription, such as allergy creams, cold tablets or drops. One case in Chester related to such an event. A woman who was experiencing some discomfort and dryness in the eye went to the pharmacist to get some drops and was given ear drops instead of eye drops. The packages of both were so similar that it was recommended that they be kept far apart in the pharmacy. The patient administered the ear drops to the eye assuming they were the eye drops she had requested and later suffered an allergic reaction.

At the time of being handed the medicine you may not realise a mistake has been made, and obviously as they are a professional we would all trust in their judgement, and may willingly take the wrong medicine or dosage. Luckily these mistakes do not always lead to a reaction or injury, but if you do find yourself a victim of this, then you may be eligible to claim for medical negligence.
