Prescription, Nonprescription and Orphan Drugs01:02

Prescription, Nonprescription and Orphan Drugs

Prescription drugs require a prescription from a medical practitioner and can only be obtained from a pharmacy. They have many applications, including treating pain, anxiety, and hypertension.
The misuse and addiction to prescription drugs is a growing problem that can affect people of all age groups, specifically teenagers. This can happen when prescription medications are used in ways not intended by the prescriber, such as taking someone else's prescription or using medication for...
Pharmacovigilance01:19

Pharmacovigilance

Post-marketing surveillance is a critical component of pharmaceutical regulation, often uncovering unanticipated adverse drug reactions (ADRs) once a drug is widely used over an extended period.
This process, termed pharmacovigilance, aims to detect, evaluate, and minimize harmful effects related to medication use. The data collection for pharmacovigilance depends on spontaneous reporting systems, where healthcare professionals or patients voluntarily report suspected ADRs.
In some cases, there...

Types of Biopharmaceutical Studies: Controlled and Non-Controlled Approaches

Biopharmaceutical studies constitute a vital field aiming to enhance drug delivery methods and refine therapeutic approaches, drawing upon diverse interdisciplinary knowledge. In research methodologies, the choice between controlled and non-controlled studies significantly influences the study's reliability and accuracy.
Non-controlled studies, commonly employed for initial exploration, lack a control group, rendering them susceptible to biases and external influences. In contrast, controlled...
Drug Classes and Categories01:25

Drug Classes and Categories

Drugs can be classified according to their chemical composition or their intended therapeutic application. For instance, anti-infective agents that possess the ability to eliminate pathogens or suppress their growth and reproduction can be grouped based on the organisms they target or their chemical structure. Furthermore, drugs can be divided into prescription, nonprescription, or controlled substances. Prescription medications, such as antibiotics, require oversight from a licensed healthcare...
Drug Regulation01:25

Drug Regulation

Drug regulation encompasses the management of drug usage by evaluating its safety and efficacy through assessments conducted by regulatory authorities. Regrettably, the history of drug regulation is marred by several catastrophic events. One such incident is the Elixir Sulfanilamide tragedy, in which the toxic compound diethyl glycol was included in a sweet-tasting medication, leading to numerous fatalities. This event prompted the enactment of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act in 1938. Under...
Dosage Regimens: Designs and Approaches01:28

Dosage Regimens: Designs and Approaches

Designing a dosage regimen, which refers to the manner of drug administration, is a complex process involving the selection of drug dose, route, and frequency. This process is underpinned by pharmacokinetic parameters derived from tests and population averages. These parameters are then tailored to patient-specific variables such as diagnosis, demographics, and allergy status. Once therapy commences, therapeutic response monitoring is critical and achieved through clinical and physical...

Area of Science:

  • Health Services Research
  • Pharmacy Practice
  • Healthcare Policy

Background:

  • Non-medical prescribing requires robust evidence for health outcomes to support widespread implementation.
  • Existing research on pharmacist prescribing in Australia and New Zealand lacks consistent evaluation methodologies.
  • Varied pilot studies have used different models, leading to challenges in comparing effectiveness.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a consistent evaluation framework for non-medical prescribing research.
  • To facilitate standardized outcome measurement across different research pilots.
  • To enable effective comparison of non-medical prescribing interventions.

Main Methods:

  • Informal collaboration initiated by pharmacists from Australia and New Zealand in 2008.
  • Review of methodologies and evaluation approaches used in pilot pharmacist prescribing studies.
  • Development of a consensus-based evaluation framework.

Main Results:

  • Identification of the need for a unified evaluation framework.
  • Agreement on the necessity for consistent outcome alignment in research.
  • The proposed framework aims to standardize the assessment of non-medical prescribing.

Conclusions:

  • A consistent evaluation framework is essential for advancing non-medical prescribing research.
  • Standardized evaluation will allow for robust comparison of intervention effectiveness.
  • This framework will support evidence-based implementation of non-medical prescribing.
