Abstract
Correction
Following the publication of our article [1] we noticed an error in the Methods section. In the sub-section 'Describing baseline prevalence of medication-related problems' the denominator for the following secondary outcome measures is incorrectly stated:
Patients prescribed amiodarone for ≥ six months without a thyroid function test in the last six months (numerator)/
Patients prescribed amiodarone for ≥ three months (denominator)
This should read:
Patients prescribed amiodarone for ≥ six months without a thyroid function test in the last six months (numerator)/
Patients prescribed amiodarone for ≥ six months (denominator)
