RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: Using clinical medication reviews, analyze the most pharmaceuticals intervention generating treatments and the problems associated. METHODS: Analysis of activity reports made by 6th year pharmaceutical students from the University of Bordeaux, class of 2017-2018. RESULTS: 76 % of clinical medication review have detected at least one drug related problem in the population of this study. Drug classes that most frequently lead to pharmaceutical interventions are nervous system drugs, alimentary tract and metabolisma drugs and cardiovascular system drugs. The most frequent drug related problems are an unjustified prescription, a contraindication or a non-compliance with the standards of care and posology issues. CONCLUSIONS: The most at risk and pharmaceutical intervention generating drugs in this study are the same as described in the international literature. This shows that more precautions must be taken for their use in the elderly. Furthermore, this new pharmaceutical service is an efficient way to detect them.

OBJECTIVES: This study aims to: (i) quantify the number of pharmaceutical interventions (PIs) linked to spontaneous requests for the two oral target molecules, ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine (ii) analyse the causes and proposed solutions (iii) quantify the number of registrations in the patient's pharmaceutical record and identify the various causes of non-registration. METHODS: The study was conducted over a 2 weeks' period in the months of February and April 2014 in 482 pharmacies affiliated to the training supervisor associations of 8 French Faculties of Pharmacy. Data regarding spontaneous requests for the target molecules was collected, with due respect to a patient care flow chart at the pharmacy, by incorporating the systematic proposal for registration of the medication in the patient's pharmaceutical record. Each PI was the subject of a notification made with reference to a standardized grid. RESULTS: A total of 12,160 dispensations were made over the two weeks of the study. Overall 815 of them gave rise to an PI (6.7%), justified in almost half of the cases by a contraindication. The alternative proposed by the dispensing pharmacist was accepted in more than 9 out of 10 cases. In half of the cases, the dispensing pharmacist had access to the patient's French healthcare card; more than 2/3 of the dispensations thus led to the registration of the medication in the patient's pharmaceutical record. CONCLUSION: The pairing of the two tools, these being the notification grid and the pharmaceutical record, aims to maximize dispensation security while patients are being guided in their approach to self-medication.
