Physician Prescribing

Promotional efforts directed to the health professions by pharmaceutical manufacturers, and their alleged association with excessive prescribing and drug abuse are the subject of this paper. The paper contends that claims to the effect that legitimate drug prescribing patterns and promotional efforts merely mirror—or even may cause—drug abuse are not factually supported. Assertions to the effect that physicians rely primarily on advertising in making prescribing decisions are not borne out by studies of the various factors which bear upon those decisions, the paper points out. It describes the extent of prescription drug promotion, and utilization and notes that physician prescribing of psychoactive drugs has lagged behind overall prescription growth trends, in contrast to the accelerating misuse and abuse of this class of medications in the community at large.

Physician Prescribing

Patient exposure to potential anticoagulant drug interactions was identified by computerized drug-therapy surveillance, as part of a peer-review program. To evaluate the response of clinicians provided with data on the potential drug interactions, 119 “exposed” patients were randomly divided and assigned to study or control groups. Physicians prescribing for the 60 study patients were informed of the potential problem by letter and were furnished with information on the drug interaction, while the 59 control patients were only monitored. Physicians provided with the information made statistically more changes in drug therapy than those not informed ( p < 0.05). Over 75 percent of study-patient physicians responding to a questionnaire accompanying the drug interaction data indicated that the service was useful and should be expanded to other drugs. Application of methods similar to that used in this study should offer drug utilization review committees an effective approach to improving drug therapy.
