MetHods We compared the incidence of adverse reaction of traditional Chinese medicine before and after intervention of clinical pharmacists in 2012 and 2013 to analyze the factors of adverse reaction of traditional Chinese medi-cine,including dosage,clinical features and administration. Results Before clinical pharmacist intervention,cases of ad-verse reaction of traditional Chinese medicine in our hospital were 127,involving 3 dosages. Injections had the highest rate of adverse reactions,accounting for 70. 08%. The intravenous drip was most likely to cause adverse reactions of the route of administration. The main clinical manifestations were damages of skin and appendages. After intervention of clinical pharma-cists,incidence of adverse reactions in our hospital was significantly decreased,counting for 62. 11%,which showed that the intervention was effective. CoNclusioN The active intervention of clinical pharmacists played a very important role in re-ducing adverse reaction of traditional Chinese medicine,and ensuring safety and rationality of clinical medication.
