The PCP getting slapped with a lawsuit for this is ridiculous when the patient didn’t go to the doctor for 5 years or whatever it was

How did the patient keep getting mesalamine for 5 years without an appointment? Was he just getting automatic refills or was the PCP just sending in new prescriptions? If that were the case I can see this being ruled in favor of the plaintiff.

Excellent question, without any clear explanation from the legal documents. One of them was clearly refilling it periodically.

I just double-checked and still not any action. The court scheduled a trial for March 2025 but they usually push it back repeatedly. Even for med mal cases this one is going extremely slowly.

Hey med mal reviewer can I contact you about a case I discovered? This is a pharmacy malpractice case but it has a twist that I think you and my fellow subscribers will find fascinating.
