How Do You Know if a Medication Error Is To Blame for Your Injury or Loss?
Here are some sobering statistics:
- According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), approximately 1.3 million people in the United States are injured every year due to medication errors. At least one person dies every day as a direct result of medication error.
- The Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy reports that approximately 1 in 5 doses of medication given in hospitals is in error.
In the face of this kind of evidence, it is reasonable to suspect that medication error may have played a part in your case. But suspicion is not proof.

- Complications arising from failure to take proper medical history, especially in pregnant women and diabetics
- Administration of blood thinners without checking surgical history
