Medication and Prescription Error Claims

Each year the NHS makes thousands of medication and prescription errors, which can often cause people unnecessary harm and suffering.

If you have been prescribed the wrong strength of medication – it may be that the dosage you have been given is too high, or you have been given the wrong drug altogether – you could have a right to claim compensation. Common mistakes that doctors and chemists make can include:

• Prescribing the incorrect dosage
• Giving adult doses to children
• Long-term repeat prescription of a drug, without sufficient patient monitoring
• Dispensing the wrong drug
