Abstract

Adverse drug reactions (ADR) including allergy are more preventable if patients recognize. This study was to investigate ADR recognition by patients who visited one university hospital located in Seoul, by face-to-face or telephone interviews using questionnaires. Recognitions, understandings, and managements on ADR in 225 adult patients enrolled in this study, were compared between ADR experienced group (n=89) and no-experienced group (n=137). Common knowledges and direct experiences on ADR were attributable to high perceptions on ADR, and lacking of active communications with clinical professionals to manage ADR was shown. In general, there were no significant differences in ADR perceptions between ADR experienced and no-experienced groups in almost items. This study findings would be useful to discuss clinical solutions for preventing ADR including drug allergy from patient individual level, and strategies including public education, guidebook on drug allergy, patient medication history record, and proactive efforts by professionals to improve ADR perception levels would be suggested.
