Common Medication Errors 

Patients trust healthcare professionals to provide them with the right medication in the right dosage to improve their health. When healthcare professionals fail to do this, patients can suffer serious injuries and some may even lose their lives. Some common medication mistakes include:

  • Not taking the patient’s information into account in prescribing or administering medication e.g. the patient’s allergies, their medical history, details of other drugs they are taking or their family history. 
  • Prescribing or administering the wrong medication 
  • Errors in communicating drug information e.g. misplacing a decimal point or misspelling the name of a drug 
  • Dispensing the wrong drug 
  • Providing the patient with the wrong instructions e.g. not warning the patient of the adverse effects of the interaction of the drug with alcohol. 

Common Causes for Medication Errors 

Medication errors can occur as a result of various reasons. These include: 

  • Lack of training 
  • Understaffing 
  • Problems with technology, e.g. software errors 
  • The pharmacist fails to confirm the information on a prescription when the handwriting is illegible 
  • Poor drug labeling 
  • Poor record keeping 
  • Overworking of staff 
  • Not paying attention 
  • Lack of knowledge about drugs
