Types of Prescription Errors
Pharmacists, doctors, and other medical workers can cause serious harm to innocent patients when they make prescription errors. Common forms of prescription errors include:
- Prescribing the wrong prescription dosage
- Prescribing the wrong prescription strength
- Putting the wrong amount of medication in the bottle
- Failing to include medication instructions and warnings
These kinds of errors could go unnoticed by patients until it is too late. Injury from prescription errors can result in the need for medical treatment, costly medical bills, time away from work, and more. In some cases, prescription errors can be fatal.
