摘要
The study was carried out to find the prescribing behaviour in the medicine out patient department of a tertiary care hospital in Rajahmundry, India. Prescriptions of 608 patients were collected over a period of 1 month. The analysis indicated that 57.7 % of drugs prescribed had no mention in the National and State Essential Drug List. Moreover the use of antibiotics (57.24%) and fixed dose combinations of various drugs (32.57%) was comparatively more as compared to earlier studies done in India. Irrational prescribing of drugs is a major health concern in developing countries like India. High power salesmanship also plays a key role in the prescribing behaviour of doctors. There is always scope for improving the prescribing habits of clinicians.
