Medication Errors

When a physician, nurse or another health care professional makes a mistake in administering your medication, it can compromise all of the care and treatment you have received with dangerous and costly results. In addition to feeling emotionally shaken, you may feel physically less well than you did when starting treatment.

If you have been affected by a medication error, you have options. At Garmer & Prather, we can help you pursue compensation for any harm you have suffered because of a medical error. Our lawyers have successfully held many health care providers accountable for their mistakes and secured compensation for our clients. We represent the victims of medication errors, including:

• Dosage errors such as overdoses
• Wrong prescriptions
• Improper administration of medication
• Reactions between multiple prescriptions

A medication error may seem simple on the surface. However, these mistakes can be difficult to pinpoint, particularly when a patient was prescribed multiple medications or treated by multiple health care professionals.

Our lead attorney, Bill Garmer, has more than 40 years of experience investigating claims, reviewing specialized medical records and identifying the critical issues in medical malpractice cases.
