“…When questioned, 70% of the interviewees stated the duration of the Therapeutics subject was not enough for them to feel confident when prescribing a medication.

“…Patients' individual characteristics (i.e., age, gender, and sociocultural profile) and medical histories (i.e., comorbidities and use of other medication) are often not considered. There are very few studies in the literature concerning prescription errors in Dentistry 2 , 10 , particularly by undergraduates 3 , 4 , 5 , 9 , 11 .
