Abstract：Objective: To investigate the effects of clinical pharmacist on adverse drug reaction (ADR) monitoring, in order to provide references for improving the effectiveness of monitoring. Methods: Retrospective method was adopted in this study. ADR reports before and after intervention were extracted and statistically analyzed according to reporter, report time, systems/organs involved in ADR and ADR outcome. Results: After intervention of clinical pharmacist, the annual number of ADR reports was increased from 87 to 161. The proportion of ADRs reproted by doctors was increased from 17.2% to 77.0% (P < 0.001). After intervention, most ADRs (57.8%) were reported within 3 days after ADR occurrence while 64.4% ADRs were reproted within 7 days after ADR occurrence without intervention. Whether before or after intervention, common types of ADR were skin and its appendages damages (49.5% and 37.1%, respectively). There was no ADR with unknown outcome after the intervention. Conclusion: Clinical pharmacists' intervention could help to report ADR more timely and normatively, thus to reduce the missing report and to promote safe medication.
