METHODS ：According to High-alert Drug Catalog （2019 edition）issued by Hospital Pharmacy Committee of Chinese Pharmaceutical Association ，the high-alert drug catalog of our hospital and their risk points were formulated. Relevant training and assessment were conducted for physicians ，pharmacists and nurses throughout the hospital. Using qualification rate of high-alert drug management and utilization as index ，the effectiveness of high-alert drug management and utilization were compared before and after optimization. RESULTS ：In our hospital ，the risk of high-alert drugs was controlled by establishing inspection and supervision group ，pharmacist education ，information management ， prescription review and individualized administration ，medication guidance ，prescription review and medication error reporting and other measures and with continuous optimization. Compared with before optimization ，qulification rate of high-alert drug management and utilization increased from 37.3％ to 80.1％ in clinical departments （P＜0.01），and that increased from 59.2％ to 85.0％ in pharmacy department （P＜0.01）. There were still some problems ，such as the inconsistency of high-alert drugs accounts and materials ，the failure to report all medication errors in time ，the imperfect establishment of prescription review software rules ， the insufficient medication guidance ，and the lack of individual medication varieties. CONCLUSIONS ：By optimizing the management of high-alert drugs ，the management and utlization of this category is improved effectively in clinical departments and pharmacy departments of our hospital.
