ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Artificial intelligence or machine learning (AI/ML) based systems can help personalize prescribing decisions for individual patients. The recommendations of these clinical decision support systems must relate to the "label" of the medicines involved. The label of a medicine is an approved guide that indicates how to prescribe the drug in a safe and effective manner. AREAS COVERED The label for a medicine may evolve as new information on drug safety and effectiveness emerges, leading to the addition or removal of warnings, drug-drug interactions, or to permit new indications. However, the speed at which these updates are made to these AI/ML recommendation systems may be delayed and could influence the safety of prescribing decisions. This article explores the need to keep AI/ML tools 'in sync' with any label changes. Additionally, challenges relating to medicine availability and geographical suitability are discussed. EXPERT OPINION These considerations highlight the important role that pharmacoepidemiologists and drug safety professionals must play within the monitoring and use of these tools. Furthermore, these issues highlight the guiding role that regulators need to have in planning and oversight of these tools.
Artificial intelligence or machine learning (AI/ML) based systems that guide the prescription of medications have the potential to vastly improve patient care, but these tools should only provide recommendations that are in line with the label of a medicine. With a constantly evolving medication label, this is likely to be a challenge, and this also has implications for the off-label use of medicines.
