I'd say that anyone has the potential to implement a medication error regardless of which class type the medication is in. Watch out for your high alert drugs especially, because they are labeled this way for a reason. When these drugs are used in error, they are more likely to cause significant harm to the patient. Examples of types of high alert drugs include those belonging in the adrenergic agonist, anesthetic agent, arrhythmic, antithrombotic, narcotic, cardioplegic solution, oral hypoglycemic, epidural or intrathecal medication, and dialysis solution categories.
