in Knoxville, Tennessee

When Pharmacy Errors Cause Serious Injuries

When you take a doctor’s prescription to be filled by a pharmacist, it is natural to trust that your prescription is filled properly and according to the doctor’s instructions. Unfortunately, pharmacy negligence and pharmacist malpractice happen all too often, sometimes resulting in serious illness or injury, and even death.

Dispensing errors by a pharmacist could result in serious, lasting and, sometimes, devastating consequences. We are committed to understanding our clients’ individual needs and the impact that pharmacy negligence has had on our clients’ lives.

Medications Most Likely to Cause Serious Harm

• Sulfonylureas, such as Glipizide

• Methotrexate (used for various issues such as psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple sclerosis)

• Chemotherapeutic agents

• Insulin U-500
