Drug Interactions are an important cause of drug related problems and this includes significant morbidity and mortality. The ability to recognise and manage drug interactions is a crucial role of the pharmacist in optimising patient outcomes. An important skill is to be able to recognise clinically significant drug interactions and provide management advice to the patient and their doctor. This advice may include discussing dose alteration strategies or alternative non-interacting drug combinations. Typically, interaction between drugs comes to mind (drug-drug interaction). However, interactions can also present in between drugs & foods (drug-food interactions), as well as drugs & herbs (drug-herb interactions). These may occur out of accidental misuse or due to lack of knowledge on the active ingredients involved in the relevant substances.
