 | | Finally, although drug treatment for a disease may be the same across races, health seeking behaviors, patient's compliance, demography and the health delivery systems which can affect clinical outcomes can be very different. | | | First, banning a drug can only shift prescribing to another drug which may be more harmful that the banned drug. | | | The longer we use a particular drug, the greater likelihood of witnessing its adverse effects and uncovering its secondary indications and benefits. |

| | Development of an adverse drug reaction reporting scheme |
| | An increasing proportion of patients are interested in their medication, and education of patients about their drug therapy can assist in preventing or minimising ADRs. | | | A record system was developed in DI to enable reports to be traced, whereby each ADR was allocated a reference number to ensure patient confidentiality. | | | The drug information department (DI) was the central point for collation of the ADRs. |

| | The goal of the project was to develop a web-based, data-driven, user-centric interactive application prototype for adverse drug reaction monitoring and education. | | | Most harmful reactions between drugs should be avoided if consumers are aware of such ADR. | | | In responding to this, our client would like to investigate a new ADR monitoring system, emphasizing on drug interactions, to better serve the consumers and promote the public awareness of ADR. |
