Re: Pharmacy malpractice
While it appears that the pharmacist might have been negligent, the damage amount would depend on your actual suffering, any permanent injury, possible loss earnings, that then needs to be compared to the amount they are offering. If you would like to discuss more please contact my office, I am both an attorney and a licensed chief pharmacist so I would be glad to discuss this with you.

If there's no permanent damage, and you didn't lose pay from work, it sounds reasonable.
