“Study And Assessment Of Drug-Drug Interactions In Hospitalised Patients In Quaternary Care Hospital”
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Pharmacy and Biological Sciences (IOSR-JPBS) - Year 2017, Vol 12, Issue 4
Abstract
Drug-Drug Interactions (DDI) in patients receiving multi-drug therapy are of wide spread. Such interactions are one of the important cause of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and may lead to increased risk of mortality and morbidity. Hence, health cost will increase. 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.
