Summary

Medication risk is defined as the potential for loss or harm that may result from the use of medications during the course of treatment. Drug-related problems (DRPs) are defined as events or situations involving drug therapy that actually or potentially interfere with desired health outcomes. DRPs represent a significant aspect of medication risk in hospitalized patients, and the study and management of DRPs can effectively reduce the incidence of medication risk. DRPs are associated with both therapeutic efficacy and adverse drug events, and the timely identification and reduction of DRPs can enhance clinical efficacy and prevent the occurrence of adverse events.

DRPs pose a challenge to the clinician, and that may affect patient's clinical outcomes and may result in morbidity or mortality and increased health care costs. Health care costs may become a burden to the patient or may be to the government or to the third parties. Clinical Pharmacy is a discipline that promotes the quality use of medicines through evidence-based medicine and helps in identification and resolving DRPs. A clinical pharmacist through his/her clinical accuracy checking may identify DRPs and come out with suitable solutions to resolve the same.

Consequently, the aims of our study were to investigate the efficacy and safety effects of pharmacist-implemented drug-related problems (DRPs)-based interventions on patients' medication therapy.

Conditions

  • Drug Related Problem

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Clinical Pharmacist-led Pharmaceutical Services

Pharmacists developed an intervention plan to reduce DRPs and improve patients' quality of life by assessing patients' medication knowledge, drug-related problems, and adherence problems in the intervention group in the order of urgency, importance, and priority to be addressed. The plan included a list of patients' medication or lifestyle-related problems, a list of programs based on the assessed problems, and other information.
