Journal Title: Otolaryngologia Polska - Year 2016, Vol 70, Issue 4

Abstract

The use of drugs in patients treated with polypharmacy generates the risk of adverse drug interactions which requires specialized knowledge and active prevention. The most common interactions encountered by ENT physicians are identified on the basis of the analysis of medical order sheets and discussed in the article.
