Many users of prescription strength pharmaceuticals are often unaware of the serious side effects that they can cause. When they do suffer a serious injury as a result, they are often unsure of what to do next.
Have you become the victim of a dangerous prescription drug?
At the law offices of Pitman, Kalkhoff, Sicula & Dentice, our team of highly trained defective drug attorneys have DETAILED knowledge of the most current drug recalls and are currently offering FREE consultations to help determine if you have grounds to file a damages lawsuit.
Pharmaceutical errors cause at least one death every day and injure approximately 1.3 million Americans annually. An estimated 106,000 deaths occur every year from non-error, adverse effects of medication and 7,000 more deaths per year occur as a result from medication errors in hospitals.
Costs from these medical errors range from $20 to $75 billion annually. The Institute of Medicine estimates that as many as 98,000 Americans die annually as a result of preventable medical errors.
When healthcare providers prescribe medications, patients assume they must be safe if they have passed Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval and that pharmacies will fill the prescription accurately.
Consumers also assume that if they read and follow the inserted directions and labels, they are protected. Unfortunately, thats not always true. Too many patients suffer serious injuries or die because of mistakes in researching, manufacturing, labeling or prescribing drugs.
If you have been injured by a defective pharmaceutical product, contacting an attorney is the first step in protecting your rights. Pitman, Kalkhoff, Sicula & Dentice can help you with the following cases.
