Antibiotic Toxicity Lawyer
When administered properly, antibiotics are an outstanding form of medical treatment. Since the invention of penicillin in 1928, common bacterial infections and illnesses such as tuberculosis, salmonella, syphilis and some forms of meningitis, used to claim the lives of millions. Today, they can be effectively treated with antibiotics if diagnosed in time.
However, antibiotics prescribed in large doses or without proper monitoring can cause many health problems, including:
- Kidney or liver dysfunction
- Abnormal blood clotting
- Blood disorders
- Deafness/Ear Damage

The pharmacy dispensing the medication or the prescribing doctor are typically responsible for ensuring that the antibiotic is administered in a reasonable dosage and that the patient taking the medication is monitored for side effects.
