Abstract: Objective: This study was conducted to identify and characterize drug-related problems among chronic kidney disease patients. Methodology: A six months prospective observational study was conducted in a tertiary care teaching hospital to categorize drug-related problems based on Pharmaceutical Care Network Classification V8.02. Results: During the study, 2239 medication orders were reviewed and the most common drug-related problem was found belonging to the category of P2.1, namely adverse event (possibly) occurring and the most frequent cause contributing to drug-related problems was inappropriate combination of drugs, category C 1.4. Conclusion: This study uncovered a high rate of drug-related problems faced by chronic kidney disease patients and it’s understood that pharmacists can contribute in providing better clinical outcomes by implementing optimal pharmaceutical care.
