Named one of the top 250 titles of the year by ""Doody's Health Sciences Book Review Journal"", this is most comprehensive examination of the causes of and means to prevent medication errors. Written by the leading pharmacist-expert in the United States and two dozen experts from medicine, nursing, risk management and the pharmaceutical industry, this book captures much of what is known about the causes and prevention of medication errors. A tabular format is used to present practical tips to prevent, reduce, minimize, and mitigate medication errors. Illustrations and color plates demonstrate factors that contribute to medication errors (i.e., illegible handwriting on prescriptions, and drug containers and labels/trade names that are confused with other drug products). The book is thoroughly referenced, and includes a detailed index.
