How Common Are Medication Errors?

Some estimates are that over 51 million dispensing errors by pharmacies take place every year.

Pharmacy errors happen in several ways:

  • You get the wrong medicine.
  • You get the wrong dose.
  • Your medicine is mislabeled.
  • The pharmacy fails to spot and prevent potentially dangerous drug interactions.
  • The pharmacy fails to inform you about the risks of taking a medication.
  • The pharmacy fails to check your existing medications for any problems involving a new prescription.

These errors can happen when pharmacy employees are over-worked. They can happen when pharmacies hire under-qualified staff. And they can happen when pharmacy staff members are under too much pressure to fill prescriptions fast.
