Both internationally and in nations like India, cardiovascular morbidity is a menace. Furthermore, unreasonable prescription does more harm to one's health and well-being. Drug use studies examine if a treatment is suitable and offer constructive criticism to improve clinical procedures. The study's goal was to describe drug usage patterns and treatment procedures in outpatient cardiology using key prescribing indicators from the World Health Organization (WHO).
Methods:
At a tertiary care hospital, a 4-month cross-sectional observational research was conducted for cardiology outpatient patients. 615 prescriptions were examined and deemed inoperative.
Keywords
