New Jersey Medication Error Attorneys

Medication errors account for thousands of deaths each year in New Jersey. Approximately a third of all medical malpractice cases are based on medication errors, with failure to administer the proper dosage being the most common type of medication error.

At Gersowitz Libo & Korek, P.C., our New Jersey medication error attorneys have the experience and knowledge to get you the compensation that you deserve for the injuries caused by medication errors.

Reasons for Medication Errors

Most medication errors involve a failure of execution or procedure, rather than a lack of medical knowledge. Some of the common ways that medication errors can happen include:

•     Wrong dosage
•     Dangerous drug interaction
•     Wrong drug
•     Wrong instructions
•     Incorrect diagnosis
•     Illegible prescription
•     Allergic reaction

Regardless of the reason, medication errors have serious consequences that can lead to further medical treatment, serious injuries or even death. Medicine is designed to heal and sustain life, but when there is medication error, the results can be disastrous for both the patients and their loved ones.

Preventable Injuries Caused By Medication Errors

There are many preventable injuries that are caused by medication errors, including:

•     Internal bleeding
•     Damage to internal organs, such as kidneys and liver
•     Brain injury
•     Coma
•     Permanent disability
•     Wrongful death
