ABSTRACT
<b>Objective</b> To quickly collect and provide information on package insert revisions, packaging changes, discontinuation of drug manufacturing and distribution, and other information without fail.<br><b>Methods</b> Information was collected with the use of a drug information service site (SAFE DI) managed by an organization formed by 15 pharmaceutical wholesalers (SAFE Co., Ltd.). The information obtained was processed into a house journal and provided to the department of pharmacy and other hospital personnel via an employees-only website (hospital LAN).<br><b>Results</b> Before the introduction of the SAFE DI, incomplete or delayed information collection sometimes forced personnel to urgently cope with packaging changes or discontinuation of drug manufacturing and distribution and assume a heavy workload. Introduction of the system allowed quick collection and dissemination of such information without fail.<br><b>Conclusion</b> The recently introduced SAFE DI contributes to qualitative improvement in collection and dissemination of information. Introduction of such a system may also be useful in other hospitals.
