ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To analyze the situation of drug use in medical institutions of Guangdong area from 2017 to 2022， and to provide reference for the production， sale and procurement of drugs by government departments， medical insurance departments， pharmaceutical enterprises， drug sales enterprises and hospitals. METHODS Using the retrospective analysis method， based on original data from Guangdong hospital information network from 2017 to 2022， statistical analysis was conducted on the drug procurement amount of 118 medical institutions that had been online for the past 6 years， as well as the distribution of 14 major categories of drugs among all purchased drugs by online medical institutions， and sales amount of drug production enterprises. RESULTS The drug procurement amount of 118 medical institutions that had been online in Guangdong area from 2017 to 2022 showed a growth-negative growth-slow growth trend. Among the 14 major categories of drugs， the top 5 drugs in the list of consumption sum were anti-infective drugs， cardiovascular drugs， nervous system drugs， anti-tumor drugs， and digestive system drugs； among the top 200 drugs in terms of procurement amount， three major categories of drugs， namely the anti-infective drugs， anti-tumor drugs and cardiovascular system drugs， occupied the main position. The top 10 drugs in the list of procurement amounts were mainly anti-tumor drugs and cardiovascular system drugs； foreign manufacturers occupied the top 3 places in the list of sales amounts in medical institutions of Guangdong area. CONCLUSIONS In Guangdong area， the growth of drug procurement amount in medical institutions is gradually slowing down， the usage of anti-infective drugs is still abundant， the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases need great attention， and foreign pharmaceutical companies are in a leading position in the sales amount of medical institutions.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the utilization of adjuvant drugs in the secondary hospitals from Xi'an, and to provide reference for rational use of adjuvant drugs.Methods: The utilization of adjuvant drugs of the top 20-ranked drugs in 32 secondary hospitals from Xi'an during 2013 and 2015 was analyzed statistically in respects of total consumption sum of adjuvant drugs, the proportion of adjuvant drugs sum, the consumption sum, DDDs and DDC of each adjuvant drug, and adverse drug reaction.Results: The total consumption sum and the proportion of adjuvant drugs sum increased year by year from 2013 to 2015.13 kinds of adjuvant drugs were included in top 20 in the list of total consumption sum from more than 3 hospitals in three years.Danhong injection, shuxuening injection, xueshuantong injection, xueshuantong injection, xuesaitong injection, deproteinized calf blood serum injection took up the front in the list of consumption sum and DDDs in 3 years.The cases of adjuvant drugs-induced ADR increased year by year.Conclusion: At present, adjuvant drugs become the important part of clinical drug use in this area.The consumption sum and amount is increasing rapidly.Great importance should be attached to the rational administration and safety use of the adjuvant drugs to control the unreasonable increase of drug expenses.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the indicators and resistance rate of antibacterial drugs for special use in our hospital before and after the implementation of network online approval process to provide reference for the management and rational use of antibacterial drugs for special use. Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed, and the consumption amount, sales amount, utilization ratio, AUD, submission rate of microbial specimen and resistance rates for the main pathogenic bacteria of antibacterial drugs and ones for special use were investigated during 2012 and 2015 in our hospital. Results:The approval process of antibacterial drugs for special use developed from handwork to network online. The consumption amount of antibacterial drugs increased slightly year by year from 2012 to 2015 in our hospital, the mean expense of antibacterial drugs for the inpatients increased from 1602. 85 yuan to 1888. 63 yuan,and AUD increased from 54. 50 DDDs/(100 persons × d) to 65. 47 DDDs/(100 persons × d). The sales amount proportion of antibacterial drugs for special use (13. 90%) was the lowest in 2013, and the highest (17. 34%) in 2015, and AUD increased from 4. 85 DDDs/(100 person × d)to 6. 37 DDDs/(100 person × d), and the submission rate of microbial specimen before the treatment increased from 85. 5% to 90. 0%. The main pathogenic bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii,and their ratio had slight change. Except Staphylococcus aureus, the resistance rate of the other four pathogenic bacteria kept increasing, and the resistance rates of Acinetobacter baumannii to cefepime and carbapenems were over 50%. Conclusion:The approval process management of antibacterial drugs for special use must be strengthened in order to truly a-chieve reasonable use of antibacterial drugs for special use.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the present situation and trend of antifungal medicines used in 34 hospitals in Wuhan area. Methods:The sales volume,market share,DDDs and DDC of antifungal medicines in 34 hospitals in Wuhan area during 2012 and 2014 were statistically analyzed. Results:The consumption sum and growth rate of the medicines were increased year by year, and those of pyrrolic medicines were the highest. The sales volume of voriconazole ranked the first. The DDDs of clotrimazole vaginal tablets and nifuratel-nysfungin suppositories ranked the top two. Conclusion:The consumption of antifungal medicines in Wuhan area has been increased greatly and the consumption structure is relatively stable. The utilization evaluation of antifungal medicines should be enhanced. Antifungal medicines should be rationally used to prevent or slow down the spread of drug resistant bacteria.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES: Osteoporosis is the most common chronic skeletal disease in postmenopausal women. The total sales of anti-osteoporosis medications have rapidly increased in Korea in recent years because of the rapid aging of our society. This study was intended to evaluate the trend in the use of anti-osteoporosis medications in 2009. METHODS: Data from the International Marketing Service (IMS) were used to analyze the sales of medications for osteoporosis. The total sales of anti-osteoporosis medications were considered to correspond to the use of anti-osteoporosis medications. RESULTS: The total market of anti-osteoporosis medications including hormones and calcium was 213.9 billion Korea won (KRW). The proportion of anti-osteoporosis medications accounted for by hormones and calcium was 16% and 84%, respectively. The total consumption of calcium was 26.9 billion KRW and nearly all the sales were over-the-counter products. Total hormone consumption was 35.6 billion KRW, of which tibolone comprised 41%. Bisphosphonate consumption was 129.6 billion KRW; the proportion of bisphosphonates in non-hormonal medications was 85.6%, followed in order by vitamin D (6.9%), raloxifene (5.0%), and calcitonin (2.0%). CONCLUSION: The most commonly used anti-osteoporosis medications based on sales were bisphosphonates comprising 60.6% of the total sales, followed by hormones and vitamin D.

Objective:To investigate the rational use of antiplatelet drugs and provide references for clinical utilization. Method:The sales amount,defined daily dose(DDDS) and daily expense(DDDc) of antiplatelet drugs in senile wards of our hospital were collected and analyzed,and other kinds of drugs which had drug interaction with aspirin were monitored by the Prescription Automatic Screening System(PASS) during 2007-2008.Result:Clopidogrel Hydrogen Sulphate Tablet was No.1 of all DDDs and Alprostadil Fat Emulsiom Injection was the most expensive of all the antiplatelet drugs,and the DDDs of aspirin was lower only than that of Clopidogrel Hydrogen;moreover,there were some problems in the clinical use of aspirin.Conclusion:The antiplatelet drug utilization in the senile wards almost meets with the guidelines and develops towards the direction to use new drugs with good action and few side-effects,but needs further standardization.
