Documents show actor Dennis Quaid and his wife have agreed to a $500,000 settlement with a hospital that gave his newborn twins an overdose of blood thinner.

A petition filed in Los Angeles Superior Court in May shows the settlement will be divided evenly between the twins, Zoe Grace and Thomas Boone.

Cedars-Sinai Medical Center has also agreed to provide free medical care for any issues from the Heparin overdose in November 2007.

The drug can be fatal to infants, but the Quaids and the hospital aren't aware of any lingering health issues with the twins.

The settlement was first reported yesterday by celebrity gossip site TMZ.
