Medical negligence
Prescription error
If you have suffered harm due to incorrect treatment or medicine, you could claim prescription error compensation. Our medical negligence solicitors can help.
You would be forgiven for thinking that getting a prescription from a nurse or doctor is one of the most basic medical procedures. Unfortunately, many errors can arise when it comes to prescribing treatment.
If you have been a victim of mis-prescription, then you may be eligible for compensation. At Howells Solicitors, we manage prescription error claims by medical negligence, such as prescribing the wrong medication or dose, being given another patient’s medication, and the miscalculation of side effects.
How we can help
Settlements for wrong prescriptions can be secured for many reasons. However, in our experience, medical error claims are more likely to be successful if the negligence has led to:
- Worsening of current symptoms
- Allergic reactions
- Severe illness
- Death (in rare cases)
Whilst you could be entitled to monetary compensation, making a claim can also ensure that remedial steps are taken to avoid future mistakes.
We work on a no win, no fee basis, so you have nothing to lose but potentially a lot to gain.
