- Did you know that research has shown that there are 225,000 deaths a year due to medical error?*
- Adverse drug reactions cause the death, hospitalization, or serious injury of more than 2 million people in the United States each year, including more than 100,000 fatalities**
- Learn about your medications and their potential risks with your iRNPA.
