Justice for Victims of Medication Errors
Holding Negligent Pharmacies and Healthcare Providers Accountable
Medication errors are among the most frequent and harmful mistakes made by healthcare professionals, often resulting in severe and lasting consequences for patients and their families. In Massachusetts, retail pharmacies routinely handle hundreds of prescriptions daily, operating under immense pressure to meet high-volume demands. Unfortunately, this drive for efficiency and profit often comes at the expense of patient safety, leading to preventable and dangerous mistakes.
Patients place their trust in healthcare providers and pharmacies to deliver accurate prescriptions that support their health. However, that trust is frequently betrayed when individuals receive the wrong medication, an incorrect dosage, or drugs that interact harmfully with their existing prescriptions or dietary needs. Compounding the issue, some patients are given inaccurate usage instructions or insufficient warnings about serious side effects. Each of these errors has the potential to cause significant harm—ranging from prolonged illness and physical pain to irreversible health conditions or even death.
Such mistakes are entirely preventable, yet they remain alarmingly common. These failures often stem from systemic issues within the healthcare and pharmaceutical industries, where the relentless pursuit of profit undermines the quality of care. For victims and their families, these errors are more than just unacceptable—they demand accountability and justice.
