Abstract

The purpose of this study was to review foreign retrospective Drug Utilization Review(DUR), and so to suggest a development plan suitable for use with domestic situation. Literature review of foreign retrospective DUR program and domestic project such as DUR and prescribing analysis project were reviewed.

Based on the review of foreign retrospective DUR program, we suggested to apply practical implementation of retrospective DUR program.
