The majority of the participants scored more than 70 %, the average score was 70.6 %.
The nurses' scores were analyzed according to years of nursing experience and type of educational preparation.
A one-way analysis of variance revealed that there was a significant difference in the knowledge of medication hazards among the nursing students who finished the pharmacological course one year ago and other nurses (P < 0.002).
Nurses with Master degrees were more knowledgeable than other groups of nurses (P < 0.05).
