Does the same thing happen to you after a hospital visit to get your medicine? When I listened to the pharmacist explaining the precautions for taking medication at the pharmacy window, I forgot how to take it as soon as I left the window; I have doubts about the usage of the prescribed medicine, and I don’t know who to ask; I don’t have any medicines delivered to my home via the Internet. In order to communicate face-to-face with the pharmacist, looking at the black and white words on the prescription, 10,000 question marks appeared in my heart…
Don’t panic! Click the “Peking Union Medical College Hospital” App to experience the “Electronic Medication Guidance” service provided by the Union Medical College Pharmacy Team——
Project Purpose
In order to allow patients to take medication correctly and safely, the Pharmacy Department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital has established a medication guidance project team, and has screened 985 commonly used drugs from the hospital’s drug supply catalog. Based on the drug instructions and authoritative pharmacy monographs, a concise medication instruction sheet is prepared and embedded in the “Peking Union Medical College Hospital” App.
As long as the patient takes out the mobile phone, the patient can check the medication instruction sheet anytime, anywhere, repeatedly, which can not only be used as a supplement to the “window medication account” under the traditional pharmaceutical service model, but also make up for the Internet It is a pity that patients cannot communicate face-to-face with pharmacists during diagnosis and treatment.
Project Introduction
The Medication Instruction Sheet contains the patient’s top concerns:
①Drug usage: Such as the time of taking the medicine, whether it is affected by diet, whether it needs to be chewed, whether it can be broken and ground, the interval between different drugs, etc.;

How to check

If you want to know more, you can continue to click “Medication Instructions” to read the drug instructions.
