Woman’s Death due to Pharmacy Mix-Up 766

Wrongful death is another area of San-Diego-Personal-Injury-attorney.com

A lawsuit has been filed against a Walgreens drugstore in Kentucky and one of its pharmacists over the death of a woman who supposedly was given the wrong prescription. San-Diego-Auto-Accident-lawyer According to the suit, the woman’s prescription was for a high blood pressure medication, but she instead was given an antihistamine. The woman’s hypertension went untreated for two weeks, and she died in a hospital shortly thereafter. The suit states that she was not given counseling regarding the medication when she picked it up, which would have allowed the pharmacist to notice the mistake and give her the correct medicine.  Jason Riley, Louisville Courier Journal  02/16/2012   San Diego personal injury attorney
