Abstract
Fukui University Hospital has contributed to medication inside and outside the prefecture based on the principle of providing “The highest and the newest medication with confidence and trust.” Pharmacists have played three important roles in drug information, pharmacoepidemiology, and regulatory science. In drug information, we assessed the dosage and administration of teicoplanin from the viewpoint of PK/PD, and built a basal appropriate administration plan. In pharmacoepidemiology, we closely examined the clinical record after showing adverse drug reactions in vinorelbine, and discovered drug interactions between vinorelbine and clarithromycin. We assessed the influence of the interaction, and built evidence of the appropriateness of contraindications for coadministration. We have achieved a measure of success in securing medication by playing these roles in clinical services.
