Prescribing
(CRAPRIOP)
prescription



A prescription is a physician's written instruction
to a pharmacist to dispense medication for a
patient.
It includes directions to the pharmacist
regarding the preparation and to the patient
regarding use of the medication.
However, a prescription represents much more
than these directions. A prescription focuses on
one slip of paper the diagnostic and therapeutic
proficiency of the physician.




Drug information must be provided to the
patient in an understandable manner
Communication can be both verbal and written.
Comprehensive written patient information
should be a supplement to face-to-face
discussion between the physician and the
patient.
Pharmacist colleagues also contribute to patient
education efforts
Adverse drug reactions




Adverse drug reactions have been said to be the
inevitable price paid for the benefits of modern
drug therapy.
The reported incidence of adverse drug
reactions ranges from 1 to 28 percent.
Drug-induced hospitalizations account for
approximately 5 percent of all admissions.
Between 5 and 30 percent of hospitalized
patients experience adverse drug reactions
