Objective  To investigate the adverse drug reactions (ADRs) of patients with SARS in Xiao Tang Shan Hospital.
Methods  We developed and distributed Drug Use Handbook and established ADRs monitoring group to guide resaonable drug use. We followed up the process and collected clinical report on ADRs. We retrospectively analyzed the data on ADRs by the classification and grade of ADRs according to WHO and Hospital Information Sysytem (HIS) of Chinese PLA General Hospital.
Results  We collected 193 (87 males and 106 females) patients with ADRs among 680 SARS patients with incidence rate of ADRs of 28.38%. The ADRs incidence rate was higher in females and elders. Critical SARS patients and SARS patients with diabetes were more susceptible to ADRs. Large dosage and combination of drugs may induce ADRs. Steroids may be a main cause of ADRs. The ADRs incidence rate induced by injection was higher than that induced by all kinds of oral drugs. ADRs mainly happened in hematological, endocrine and digestive systems.
Conclusion  SARS patients are prescribed many kinds of medications. Large dosage of so many medications may lend to high incidence rate of ADRs. Steroid should be cautiously used in the treatment of SARS.
