The term "medical malpractice" encompasses pharmacies and pharmacists who dispense medications, each of which may be liable for damages caused by their failure to perform their duties carefully. For example, consider a pharmacist who is supposed to dispense a blood thinning medication at a certain dosage, but accidentally dispenses twice the recommended dose, the consequence of which is that the patient begins to bleed uncontrollably and dies. In other circumstances, pharmacists may place the wrong medication in a patient's prescription bottle with devastating and long lasting consequences, including potentially death. In these and other scenarios, the pharmacist and the pharmacy may be liable for all damages resulting from the patient's injuries, pain and suffering.
