If the doctor gave you medication when he knew or should have known that you were allergic and this caused your injuries and damages, then yes you would have a medical malpractice claim. Proving cases like this require expert witnesses which charge for their time. In deciding whether to pursue a case, you have to make sure the potential recovery is worth the cost of pursuing the case. An attorney who is experienced in medical malpractice can help you make this evaluation.
Hope this helps.
