Long Island Pharmacy Prescription Errors Lawyer
Law Office of Cohen & Jaffe, LLP.

Serious Injury from Pharmacy Mistakes – NY Medication Errors Lawyers
Pharmacists are ultimately responsible for the drugs they dispense. They are trained to know the uses, formulas, doses and side effects. They also have tools and systems for identifying contraindications and a duty to verify “scrips” with the prescribing physician if there is any question.
Yet pharmacy errors happen every day, with disastrous results. Our legal team can hold hospital pharmacies and pharmacy chains accountable for severe or permanent injury from:
- Allergic reaction (known drug allergies)
- Incompatible health conditions (“do not take if …”)
- Adverse interactions with other current medications
- Dispensing the wrong drug or wrong dosage
- Labeling errors
- Incomplete or incorrect instructions to patients
- Mix-ups with another patient’s order
