This is a very important step in the production of medications. We need to know that nothing went wrong with the synthesis and we aren't ingesting toxic and potentially fatal byproducts. Dosage can also be wrong if measuring an impure compound.

Imagine injecting too much epi! Not good!
Honestly my concern is too little. Say you make a measurement expecting 90% purity but its actually 60%. You're getting way less epi and may continue struggling to breathe after taking the shot. Scary shit.
