Some Additional Prescription Functions

 

Interaction Checks

 

Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: ICS

Standard Interaction Check

 

PCScripts will perform interaction checks in two different manners, a standard check and an aggressive interaction check (AIC).

The standard check will compare interactions listed in the prescribing information, med information, and sites which report

interaction patients experience not listed in the manufacture information. It will flag interactions once for a med vs. med check

and will report them as possible interactions.

 

Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: ICA

Aggressive Interaction Check for same patient

 

The AIC will take it further by taking interaction items and expanding them as far as possible. For example, lets look at

Abbokinase. It list that it may interact with anti-inflammatory drugs (nsaids, such as ibuprofen). PCScripts will expand this by listing

each NSAIDS as a possible interaction and allow the physician to determine which it may interact with.
