Antipsychotics Rx Errors

"Medication errors can result either from a prescribing error or a dispensing error or a combination of both. A new study by a group of British pharmacists suggests that in psychiatry, prescribing errors are fairly common."
…
"Overall, Taylor and his colleagues concluded, 'pharmacy staff detected on average one prescribing error for every 42 prescriptions checked.'… 'most errors were of doubtful or minor importance, but' 1 in 33 errors was deemed likely to result in serious effects or death."
