This series brings you up‐to‐date information about medication safety issues and strategies to prevent medication errors. It draws on Australian incidents and US experience, including (with permission) material from ISMP Medication Safety Alert! a bulletin published by the US Institute for Safe Medication Practices < www.ismp.org >. This series is coordinated via the Committee of Specialty Practice in Medication Safety (Chair, Rosemary Burke, Director of Pharmacy, Concord Hospital, NSW). Australian incidents are collated and editorial recommendations made by Penny Thornton (Consultant, Quality Assurance in Medication Safety; < medsafety@shpa.org.au >).
