Medication Errors Are a Serious Problem

Far too many patients in the U.S. suffer serious injuries resulting from medication errors. Physicians have a duty to provide prescriptions for the correct medication and for the correct dosage. All too often, doctors feel rushed and simply fail to take adequate time to avoid making critical mistakes. In some instances, doctors fail to properly inquire about the type of medications their patients are taking and prescribe medications that may cause serious side effects due to adverse drug interactions.

Of course, physicians are not the only medical professionals responsible for medication errors. Pharmacy errors, nurse errors and hospital staff errors also contribute to a significant number of medication errors.
