Priyanki Mishra, Dr. Kusum Kumari*, Dr. Sunita Toppo and Dr. Pramveer Kumar
ABSTRACT
Pharmacoeconomics can be defined as a study which uses cost -benefit, cost-effectiveness, cost minimization, cost of illness and cost analysis to compare pharmaceutical products and treatment strategies.[1] It compares the cost of different alternatives of drug therapy and and its consequences upon the healthcare and the society. Thus, this branch has become an oft-used criterion for decision making in modern health care policy. Apart from the economic components, the humanistic components related to pharmacoeconomics include quality of life, patient preferences and patient satisfaction.[2] Pharmacoeconomic evidences can be utilised to support decisions regarding the pricing of drugs by various pharmaceutical companies. Also, these principles can be applied to the hospital pharmacies and the community. Keywords: . [Download Article] [Download Certifiate] |
