Medical complications and injuries can be caused by number of things, including:

• Incorrect prescriptions
• Pharmaceutical errors
• Misdiagnosis
• Medical malpractice
• Dangerous medical devices
• Dangerous drugs

Many of these injuries and losses are completely preventable. When drug companies and pharmaceutical companies are cautious, they test drugs adequately and their products undergo multiple trials to make sure that the products are safe. Good companies also properly label their medication and disclose all information about their drugs, including the risk of potential side effects and interactions. In addition, if the drugs need to be compounded or mixed at the pharmacy, pharmaceutical companies and drug companies should be careful in ensuring that pharmacists have the information they need to compound drugs correctly.

Pharmaceutical companies are obligated by law to ensure that their products are tested and safe before being released to the public. Unfortunately, there are still many things that can occur that can lead to dangerous drugs been released into the marketplace:

• Inadequate product testing
• Cutting back on costs, which leads to cost-cutting measures that prove to be dangerous
• Incorrect or inaccurate labeling of a product
• Incorrect information being dispensed to pharmacies and doctors about the product from drug manufacturer representatives
• Lack of correct response to adverse effects in the general population
• Lack of correct response to reports of injury among patients
• Flaws or defects in the manufacturing process of a drug
• Lack of correct instructions to pharmacies in case the drug has to be compounded at a pharmacy
• Pharmaceutical error
• Laboratory error or negligence

Drug manufacturers, pharmacies, and health care professionals all have an obligation to ensure that patients get a high standard of care that reduces the risk of medical mistakes and negligence. When pharmaceutical companies are negligent in providing adequate testing for their products or accurate marketing and labeling, they can be held liable if patients are seriously injured as a result.
