This study estimates to find out the potential DDIs among the hospitalized patients. The final results of the study concluded with a major preponderance towards ATORVASTATIN and ASPIRIN In which the interaction of ATORVASTATIN and PANTOPRAZOLE can lead to (insert what will happen if HMG coa increases ) and interaction between ASPIRIN and HEPARIN can lead to ( insert what will happen if the interactions occur) further intervention by clinical pharmacists to reduce such adversities have to be implemented.
