Abstract
 The Japanese government has been considering introducing a personal information management system, which makes it possible for people to manage their social service records on an individual basis. In this paper, we propose a prescription and individual medication history management system by applying the personal information management system which would be established by the Japanese government as a secure storage for individual information. The proposed system has functions to record and refer the history of prescription, dispensing and total dosing quantity. This information can be presented to medical doctors and effectively used for the patient health management. Moreover, the system can check drug interactions and redundant medication by comparing prescription data with the medication history stored in the personal information management system. We developed a demonstration system by incorporating some kinds of security techniques such as smart card, data enciphering, dynamic virtual private network and so on. With the trial use of the developed system by a medical doctor and a pharmacist, we confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed system in clinical practice.
