PHARMACEUTICAL MALPRACTICE

Pharmaceutical malpractice (or pharmaceutical negligence) lawsuits are one of the fastest growing types of personal injury lawsuits that there is. Pharmaceutical malpractice is very common and the foundation for these lawsuits is prescription medication. The pharmaceutical malpractice lawsuits are filed based on: drug recalls; product failure; long-term side effects of prescription drugs; improperly prescribed medication and improperly filled prescriptions.

Pharmaceutical malpractice or negligence means that a drug company caused injury or death to a consumer by failing to act within the applicable standard of care. In other words, a drug company commits malpractice and is negligent when it fails to act reasonably under the given circumstances and the unreasonable conduct causes harm. This could be because a drug was not designed or tested properly. It could also be because the company did not provide effective and appropriate warnings to the doctors who prescribed the drug, and to the consumers who took them.
