Common Reactions and Injuries From Pharmacy Errors
The most common problem a person faces is a bad reaction or an adverse reaction to a certain drug. There are also instances when there is a bad reaction to a drug. Sometimes the doctor will mean to write a prescription for one drug, get confused or forget, and write a prescription for a different drug. If this drug was not supposed to be written for you, you could have a terrible reaction to it and suffer anything from sickness to death. As you can imagine, not all drugs mix well together, and the drugs may not interact in a way that is best for you.
You may have a reaction that is averse to you, especially if a drug that is prescribed to you is one that you are allergic to. For example, you may be allergic to certain kinds of medication for people who allergic to cats, but this drug that was wrongly prescribed to you may in fact be horrible for you and cause you a terrible reaction. You could easily end up in the ER with this kind of reaction.
COMMON PHARMACY ERROR
Injuries If you have been injured because of a pharmacy error, you have the right to bring a claim against the pharmacy or hospital, along with the doctor or pharmacy, for your injuries. The most common injuries are:

After suffering an adverse reaction to a certain drug, then it is best to seek medical care immediately to address your injuries.
