From simple mix-ups to fatal overdoses, medication mistakes happen, on average, once a day to every hospital patient, a new report says. Nationwide, at least 1.5 million people annually are harmed from drug errors, more than half of them in nursing homes, said the Institute of Medicine report, released yesterday.
Many Unfavorable Drug Studies Aren’t Published. Nearly a third of antidepressant drug studies are never published in the medical literature, and nearly all of those happen to show that the drug being tests failed to work.
Only Drugs That are Safe Should be put on the Market. Drug developers are just beginning to come to grips with recent FDA oversight reforms and how they will affect drug safety. But, it appears that industry and consumer advocates are not together on how well the overhaul will be able to prevent future drug safety scandals.
