this is hardly a logical argument in the case. The fact that something is wrong *everywhere* doesn't make it right or something you have to live with.
Using prepackaged medicines eliminates 99,x% of such cases (rare as they are) But it costs more and calls for restructuring the whole pharmacy infrastructure, so it is unlikely to happen, unless the people who call the shots can be made to see the problem.
