Cincinnati Wrong Medication Attorneys

Ohio Drug Overdose Lawyers

If you were given wrong medication or overdosed by a doctor, dentist, pharmacist or other medical provider.
When a medical provider prescribes medication for you, you expect the medication to make you feel better; however, sometimes, medical providers make mistakes or act negligently and fail to deliver a basic standard of care. This can result in severe allergic reactions, treatment for the wrong illness, and even death. Many states may have specific rules about pursing medical malpractice cases. If you have been given the wrong medication or overdosed by a medical professional, you should:

Seek a second opinion, and try to have your new medical provider document in writing that your symptoms were a direct result of poor prior medical care
Be aware that medical doctors must be licensed to practice. You should check your doctor's qualifications in order to see if your doctor is in good standing or has had any prior complaints about his or her practice
Keep all of your medical records and reports, including prescription receipts
Medical malpractice claims involve complex theories of liability. The medical provider's malpractice insurance wants to deny or settle your claim for as little as possible. Be aware that they have experienced adjusters trained to protect their interests and ask questions to build legal defenses to your claim. Until you have contacted an attorney:
Do not sign a release of your claims.
Do not make any written or recorded statements or sign anything that could be against your interest.
Do not discuss settlement until you are fully recovered from your injuries and have been discharged by your physician.
