Cimetidine is the most commonly prescribed drug in North America. A clinical review was conducted to identify physicians' prescribing habits. From September 1, 1981 to March 31, 1982, the charts were reviewed of 50 patients receiving cimetidine in an isolated coastal community hospital in British Columbia. It was discovered that physicians prescribed the drug for reasons approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) only 14% of the time. The FDA guidelines approve cimetidine for duodenal ulcer, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, and other hypersecretory states. A literature review was conducted, and guidelines on prescribing cimetidine were given to all members of the hospital's medical staff.
西咪替丁是北美最常开的处方药物。我们进行了一项临床审查,以确定医生的开药习惯。1981 年 9 月 1 日至 1982 年 3 月 31 日,我们审查了不列颠哥伦比亚省一个沿海社区医院中 50 名接受西咪替丁治疗的患者的病历。结果发现,医生开药的理由仅 14%得到了食品和药物管理局 (FDA) 的批准。FDA 指南仅批准西咪替丁用于十二指肠溃疡、卓-艾综合征和其他高分泌状态。我们进行了文献回顾,并向医院全体医务人员提供了西咪替丁处方指南。
