Default Re: mistakes in prescriptions!!

That's OK, I had a script last year for an 84-year old male diabetic patient for Ocytocin injections that should have been Oxycontin!
Over the Easter Bank holiday weekend, I had one for 200ml paracetamol susp. 500mg/5ml for a 9-week old baby, half a spoonful every 6 hours, and
one for Nozinan injections, 125mg to be given over 24 hours via syringe-driver, that should have read 12.5mg/24hrs...
