Allergy To Penicillin
Mr P, Coventry
Our client, Mr P, was suffering from pneumonia and was prescribed amoxicillin by his General Practitioner even though he had a suspected allergy to penicillin. Liability and causation were strongly denied by the General Practitioner on the basis that there was no evidence that Mr P had a penicillin allergy. It was also claimed that the symptoms were a consequence of a pre-existing pneumonia not an allergic reaction to the penicillin.
1stClaims specialist Medical Negligence Solicitor obtained evidence to support out client's Medical Negligence Claim from a General Practitioner, a pharmacologist and a dermatologist.
Mr P's claim was settled for £9,000 which included care and attention from his family, aids, loe and medical expenses.
