• There are 2 types of diabetes mellitus:
• Type 1: Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
(IDDM)
Destruction of pancreatic beta cells
Is the result of an autoimmune process
• Type 2:Non-insulin dependent diabetes
mellitus (NIDDM)
Results from a combination of insulin resistance
and altered insulin secretion

Reply of Drug Incident Report September 2004
40a
• IV Mitoxantrone was prescribed
• The abbreviation MTX’ was put on the label
• An injection of Methotrexatewas prepared
instead according to the abbreviation on the
label
• Methotrexate was administered to the patient as
a result
• Write drug name in full
• Do not use unauthorised abbreviations
• Cross check the dose & name of the drug before
preparation & administration
• Patient was given a Pethidine injection at ARE via a verbal
order
• Nurse forgot to record this order in MAR
• Prescribing Dr had not confirmed the verbal order in the
prescription
• A second dose of Pethidine was administered in the ward
• Patient collapsed as a result of overdose of Pethidine
• Pethidine Is a Dangerous Drug & should not be ordered
through verbal o ders
• For other non-DD, give a verbal order only in emergency
& exceptional circumstances
• Record the verbal instruction in the MAR immediately as
verbal order
• After writing down the instruction read back the details
to the Do for double checking
• Patient was transferred from medical ward ło ICU with
high plasma level of Paracetamol
• Patient was treated with N-acetylcysteine infusion as an
antidołe
• Patient later admitted that she had taken approximately
15 tabs of Paracetamol (private medications) in the
medical ward to relieve her leg pain
• Put patients brought-in medicines into safe custody
• Do not administer the patient's own medicines in hospital
unless they have been positively identified specifically
prescribed & when supplies are not immediately
available inside the hospitals
• An in-patient presented with severe hypotension &
vomiting
• A review of the MAR revealed that Daonil
(Glibenclamide) was written right above the prescription
for Citalopram in pencil
• Upon investigation, it was discovered that some nursing
staff gave Citalopram to the patient whilst others gave
GBibencla ide
• Familiarise with the medication & or the patient
• If there is uncertainty or confusion about a particular
prescription, always consult with the prescriber
• Adequate communication between staff is the key to
preventing errors
• Martindale 1 drop tds both eyes was prescribed
• Martindale is the name of the drug company that
makes the eye drops
• Prescribe in generic rather than trade name as trade
names don't usually give indications of their constituents
• A10 month old baby was prescribed Cotrimoxazole
suspension 20mg bd
• Cotrimoxazole is a combination product containing
Sulphamethoxazole 200mg & Trimethoprim 40mg per
Sml
• 240mg per 5 ml & 20mg - 0.42mI
• it was later clarified that the dose 20mg refers to the
Trimethoprim component
• Thus 120mg cotrimoxazoleshould have been prescribed
• Should clearly specify drug dosage especially for
combination product
• Clarify with prescriber if in doubt
