Improving patient care through evidence based quality use of medicines initiatives

About the Program (  Factsheet)

Quality Use of Medicines is about ensuring medicines are used:

  • Judiciously - ensuring that the best possible treatment plan is chosen for each patient.
  • Appropriately - ensuring that when medicines are needed they are carefully selected, managed, monitored and reviewed.
  • Safely - minimising misuse, overuse and underuse of medicines and taking appropriate actions to solve medication problems such as adverse events.
  • Efficaciously - ensuring that medicines achieve the goals of therapy by delivering beneficial changes in actual health outcomes.
