Answer to Question 1

Any four of the following: A conflict with any drug the patient is already taking. Ingredients that make up the drug are checked against the ingredients of current medications to see whether they conflict with or would hinder the effectiveness of the drug. Drugs are checked for duplicate therapy, which occurs when a patient is taking a different drug of the same class that would have the effect of an overdose. Allergy records are checked for food and drug allergies that would be aggravated by the new drug. The patient's diagnosis history is checked to see whether the patient has a medical condition that the drug would negatively affect. A patient education alert is created when the drug might be affected

by certain foods or alcohol interactions. If theSig has been entered at the time of the DUR, then it is also checked to see whether it matches recommended guidelines for the drug. Too much, too little, too

many days, or too many refills could cause overdosing, underdosing (causing the drug to be ineffective), or abuse.

Answer to Question 2
