Seems like that only affected meds that were distributed to hospitals, right? Is that what they were referring to as Hospital Unit doses? It's a pretty dangerous thing to have happened. Imagine if someone took 8 trileptal a day instead of 8 ibuprofen. Not such a good thing!
 
would be better than taking 8 ibuprofen when they're supposed to be trileptal...
