AbstractThere have been recently a prescription error and a dispensing error in our department due to drug names which look or sound alike. Errors of this type have frequently been quoted in the Anglo-Saxon literature. The method of choosing a drug trade name is recalled, and a table of French drug names which can involve errors of prescription and dispensing errors is provided.
