ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze one case of unreasonable drug use to promote reasonable drug use in clinics. Methods: The treatment regimen with irrational drug use for one case of type 2 diabetes with complicated urinary tract infection were analyzed, and the reasons for the irrationality were summarized and some suggestions for avoiding unreasonable drug use were put forward. Results:The choice of moxifloxacin in the initial treatment was irrational, and no combination indications were shown. Clinical pharmacists partici-pated in the ward rounds and timely communicated with the clinicians to correct the drug use. Conclusion:Due to the drug resistance, pharmacokinetic characteristics and adverse reactions, moxifloxacin is unsuitable for the anti-infection treatment of complicated urinary tract infection. Clinical pharmacists should provide individualized treatment for patients to improve the effectiveness of drug therapy.
