Core Tip	Although a high medication error (ME) rate has been found in neonatal wards, newborn safety issues have not been adequately studied until now. Healthcare professionals working in neonatal wards are particularly susceptible to committing MEs due to the peculiarities of newborn patients and of the neonatal intensive care unit environment. Current neonatal prevention strategies for MEs have been borrowed from adult wards, but many factors such as high costs and organizational barriers have hindered their diffusion. The present article reviews current issues related to MEs in Neonatology and discusses the strategies to prevent them and to improve the safety of newborns.
