At dispensing stage, occur 427 incidences (9.71%), consist of two incidences (0.04%) for validation assessment regulations, 224 incidences (5.09%) of data entry, 113 incidences (2.57%) of retrieval of drugs, 19 incidences (0.43%) of fi ll in drugs, 69 incidences (1.57%) of fi nal check. At dispensing stage, near missed 330 incidences (7.51%) of near missed and 97 incidences (2.21%) of potential injury. Failure mode and effect analysis calculate of risk priority number, the drug retrieval (RPN 210) and data entry (RPN 126) were analyzed root cause of the analysis for man, material, method, facility and environment.]]>
