Doxycycline Case Doxycycline is
also caustic to the esophagus. The pharmacist said “make sure you take this
with a full glass of
liquid” and the patient took the drug home, started to fall asleep, and
forgot to take her
doxycycline, she took it then, and went to sleep. The pill never made it
down esophagus, and08L] - 12
burned a hole. Patient went into a medical center, and the nurse messed up,
and hit the nerve
in the arm, and patient lost arm. So pharmacist was responsible for all the
medical problems in
the chain of events. Argument was that the patient was never told to swallow
the pill and sit
upright. Pharmacist should have told the patient this, and he breached the
duty to the patient.
我一般也是说喝很多水，不知道还要说一定要吞下去，坐直，我以为常识中吃药片就是
要吞下去的 | b******8

了，有INJURY,顾客SUE药师，说药师没有counsel说不能给娃的弟弟吃。WTF，明明是你
的问题，你就不该给娃的弟弟吃娃的药。还好，court判药师无罪，因为unforeseeable | b******8

Cx Heredia Case (NV)
Pharmacist dispensed otic solution. Patient had a ruptured eardrum during
the course of treatment.
Administered the solution and suffered hearing loss and brain injury. Sued
under Strict Liability
arguing the pharmacist provided inadequate warning by not telling him to
discontinue use if the
eardrum ruptures. How is this different from a negligence suit for failure
to warn?
Pharmacist actually put the pharmacy label over the bottle’s warning label
“do not use if eardrum
ruptures”. Under strict liability you don’t have to show a breach of
standard of care…negligence is
irrelevant. The whole issue is if the warning is inadequate. If the court
says that, it doesn’t matter if the
pharmacist was reasonable. The Nevada court did find strict liability.
Disgruntled patients will bring
every possible issue against the pharmacist hoping something will stick. In
this case, strict liability stuck. | b******8

61664; EXCEPTION to Unforeseeable Events
Pharmacist dispenses wrong drug causing patient to become hospitalized.
While in hospital nurse administers IV improperly permanently injuring a
nerve. Is pharmacist responsible for nerve injury?
• The pharmacist put the patient in the hospital by his mistake. But
then the nurse made a
mistake, and this is superseding and intervening event right? But medical
malpractice is not
acceptable to the courts. The courts actually expect malpractice and
negligence in the medical
system. So the pharmacist in this case is responsible all the way through (
the “links in the chain”
are not broken when the patient continues through the medical system). [
pg351]
The judge say mal-practice is foreseeable event, if you put somebody in the
hospital, you are foreseeing they will get worse. So it is foreseeable. | b******8
发帖数: 1251 | 5 这学期学完LAW的感觉就是，我还是做TECH好了，我们老师说的，无论TECH烦什么错误
，他都可以get them off the hook:
[8] Pharmacy Error Statistics
• Error rates: 1.5% - 4%
• 5 billion Rxs dispensed
• What if error rate was only 0.1%, how many errors would there be? &#
61664; 5 million
[9] Drug Topics Survey
• 53% admitted to error within past 60 days
• 36% admitted to making 2 errors
• 28% admitted to making > 2 errors
• 80% of errors wrong drug or dosage
我还是现在 chain pharmacy把该犯的错误都犯了来吧 | b**o

发帖数: 1251 | 7 说道walmart,你们公司的案例可不少，记得有一个是，有个病人有药过敏，说了多次了
，结果WALMART的一个药师还是给了那个药，结果病人SUE，药师认错了，WALMART坚决
不认错，说他们收集了顾客的information,但是并没有认为they should use the
information for patient care, they just collect patient's information, no
intent to use the infomation,狡辩呀，最后walmart输。BTW，我law final居然得了
96.5，由此说明，考law真的是考运气 | P*A
发帖数: 7996 | 8 记得讲案例时候说过，walmart从来都是最硬气的，从不跟病人妥协，很有明朝的范儿
可惜walmart太爱招老黑了，电脑系统也弱的厉害，不是工作的好地方
