We have come to rely on medication as a quick solution to serious illnesses or injuries. Sometimes, however, a medical practitioner will be heavy-handed in providing prescriptions or worse, provide unregulated prescriptions. If someone becomes too reliant on prescription medication, severe health issues or loss of life can follow. Doctors should be made to account for their irresponsible actions. Our Houston Attorneys Handle Prescription Drug Error Lawsuits across Texas.
A “pill mill” is a place where medications are prescribed for cash, whether the medication is necessary or not. Tommy Hastings of Hastings Law Firm in Houston has succeeded in shutting down at least one of these “pill mills”. These centers make money off addiction and this causes a rise in desperation, crime, and medical expenses for subsequent health issues. Tommy has secured millions of dollars on behalf of his clients for the damage caused to them. He is held in high regard by both his colleagues and opponents for his work in “pill mill” cases and in the general area of medical negligence.
Some medical professionals do not have any issue in charging a co-pay to prescribe medication, whether the medication is necessary or not. Under these circumstances, a doctor may provide an incorrect prescription or bad medicinal advice. This can cause the person to develop severe health issues, addiction, or worse, lose their life. Some medications that are often prescribed inappropriately include:
Xanax
Narcotics
Norco
Hydrocodone
Lortab
Relaxation and anxiety medications
OxyContin
