Miami Pharmacy Negligence

Urban Miami has a population of 5.5 million and the city is considered one of the region’s leaders when it comes to commerce, communications, and the arts. It is also one of the leaders when it comes to medicine, with a large college as well as many hospitals, specialized clinics, and other medical facilities. In fact, patients from surrounding areas are often transported to Miami to take advantage of the specialized facilities and world-class specialists in the area. Some patients fly in from other countries to get treatment from the world-class medical professionals in the city.

As part of its medical system, Miami has a large number of pharmacies, ranging from independent pharmacies, to pharmacy counters inside larger stores and grocery stores. While most pharmacists in the city work hard to provide a high standard of care, pharmacy negligence does occur in Miami each year. If you have sustained an injury due to a pharmacy’s negligence in Miami or any surrounding community, you can always reach the Flaxman Law Group for prompt, professional, and compassionate legal advice.

When you take a new medication, it is important to keep alert for any possible side effects, possible allergic reactions, or other problems. If you have unusual symptoms, stop taking the medication immediately and contact your doctor or pharmacist. Visit a doctor to get a full checkup to see what the problem is. Do not resume taking the medication unless your physician tells you it is okay. Taking the wrong medication in the wrong dosage causes patients to experience allergic reactions, respiratory problems and burns in Miami and other communities – in addition to many other serious injuries. When in doubt, it is best to consult with a medical professional if something seems amiss with your medication.

Even if you take all the precautions necessary, pharmacy errors may still result in serious side effects and health problems. If you have suffered a serious injury – such as a burn injury, allergic reaction, or other serious injury – due to a pharmacy error, you will want to contact a personal injury attorney in Miami or your community in order to determine whether you have any legal options.
