Torts Practice
What areas of torts do we need to focus on right now? I will pull a few MC to practice with you all this week! For now, here is a products liability question since it is a torts/contracts cross-over area (in other words it is a torts question but contract principles will help you solve it): The manufacturer made a product that was sold over the counter for treatment of dandruff and dry scalp conditions. A doctor purchases a bottle at a drugstore. A statement on the label read, "This product will not harm normal scalp or hair." The doctor used the product as directed. Bcause of a rare scalp condition making him allergic to one of the ingredients, the product irritated his scalp causeing him much pain and discomfort. In an action for negligence by the doctor against the manufacturer, which of the following additional facts or inferences, if it was the only one true. would be most effective in the manufacturer's defense?

option B seems like the best answer out of these choices. (1) the the label read that it would not damages "normal scalp and hair" and (2) it was mentioned that the doctor had a "rare" condition. If the company were to defends itself, their best argument would be that the damages caused were unforeseeable by a reasonable person.
