Dealing with Pharmacy Malpractice in Pembroke Pines or Your Community

Across the country, 4 billion prescriptions are filled on average each year. About a third of those are filled at major pharmacies belonging to pharmacy chains. Unfortunately, each year millions of people are affected by pharmacy negligence, malpractice, or mistakes. In many cases, these patients suffer serious complications, allergic reactions, drug interactions, or even fatalities.

As more people rely on prescription medication due to an aging population and as pharmacies are increasingly concerned about profits, it is expected that more pharmacy errors may occur. Already, so many pharmacy errors and instances of pharmacy negligence have occurred in Pembroke Pines and in Florida that in 2008 the state passed new legislation to increase qualifications, training, and supervision for pharmacy assistance and techs.

In many cases, pharmacy errors are preventable if a pharmacy is correctly staffed. Errors can in many cases be prevented if a pharmacy carefully screens its staff and has procedures that ensure that pharmacy professionals take reasonable care when filling and dispensing medication. When pharmacies and pharmacy professionals fail to act in a reasonable manner and their actions result in harm to patients, pharmacy professionals can and should be held responsible for their negligence.
