Sorry for late reply but just spotted this.My mum had low blood pressure and was recovering after a major op at a convalescent hospital and was given some meds.The nurse shortly after came running in asking her if she had taken them.Fortunately she hadn't got round to taking them as they were bp meds for a patient with the same name.I wonder how often this happens.
