Abstract

Drug information center (DIC) or Medicine information services provides impartial, well-referenced, critically evaluated, updated information on various aspects of medications to healthcare professionals and consumers. Medicine information services also contribute to the minimization of medication errors by promoting medication education and supporting pharmaceutical services. The main objective of this reflective commentary is to highlight the recent scenario of medicine information services in Nepal, challenges for DIC, how DICs can be strengthened and future perspectives of DIC. The availability of medicine information in various online drug information sites and numerous applications (apps) have made it easier to assess the information in the country such as Nepal. However, the reliability and validity of such information should be considered before dissemination. DIC plays a crucial role in improving drug safety by aiding clinicians in safer use of medications and promoting adverse drug reaction (ADR) reporting in Nepal. Financial support for operating the DIC efficiently is scarce in Nepal resulting in operational problems. The performance of the medicine information services in the country should be evaluated periodically to ensure the good quality of the service. Steps should be taken by the government, private hospitals and regulatory bodies to sustain the already established DIC and to establish additional DICs in the future to provide quality health care service to the community.

摘要

药物信息中心(DIC)或药品信息服务为医疗保健专业人员和消费者提供关于药物各个方面的公正、有充分参考文献、经过严格评估且及时更新的信息。药品信息服务还通过促进药物教育和支持药学服务,有助于将用药错误降至最低。这篇反思性评论的主要目的是突出尼泊尔药品信息服务的现状、DIC面临的挑战、如何加强DIC以及DIC的未来前景。在尼泊尔这样的国家,各种在线药品信息网站和众多应用程序(应用)中都有药品信息,这使得获取信息变得更加容易。然而,在传播此类信息之前,应考虑其可靠性和有效性。在尼泊尔,DIC通过帮助临床医生更安全地使用药物并促进药物不良反应(ADR)报告,在提高药物安全性方面发挥着关键作用。尼泊尔缺乏有效运营DIC所需的资金支持,导致出现运营问题。该国药品信息服务的表现应定期评估,以确保服务质量。政府、私立医院和监管机构应采取措施维持已建立的DIC,并在未来设立更多的DIC,以便为社区提供优质的医疗保健服务。
