Description:
Healthcare professionals and patients should use this application to search for potential drug-drug interactions between hepatitis drugs and other medications, as recommended by international treatment guidelines. Results are presented as a “Traffic Light” system (red, amber, yellow, green) to indicate the recommendation. A brief summary of each interaction is given. The application is available free of charge and has been developed by the Liverpool Drug Interactions Group at the University of Liverpool and Podmedics

Requirements:
This is an “offline” application that is downloaded to your device (~7.6 MB). An internet connection is not required to use the application, but is needed for downloading updates.

Why this application may be useful:
In hepatitis therapy, patients take more than one hepatitis medication at a time and possibly other drugs to treat co-existing conditions. Many of the drug combinations have the potential to interact and this can affect either the patient's safety or the effectiveness of treatment. For this reason some drug combinations should not be given at all, while other drugs may be used together with caution, possibly requiring adjustments to dosage or time of administration. This application is a guide to interactions that may occur between different hepatitis drugs and other medications that the HCV- and/or HBV-infected patient may be prescribed. The application is regularly updated as new data emerge. Full details about the interactions can be found at www.hep-druginteractions.org.

This application is based on the original HEP iChart app but has been updated to provide universal support for both phones and tablets.

Beskrivelse:
Sundhedspersonale og patienter skal bruge dette program til at søge efter potentielle interaktioner mellem hepatitis narkotika og andre medikamenter, som anbefalet af internationale behandlingsvejledninger. Resultaterne er præsenteret som en "Traffic Light" (rød, orange, gul, grøn) til at angive indstillingen. Et kort resumé af hver interaktion er givet. Applikationen er gratis og er blevet udviklet af Liverpool Lægemiddelinteraktioner Group ved University of Liverpool og Podmedics

Krav:
Dette er en "offline" program, der er downloadet til din enhed (~ 7.6 MB). En internetforbindelse er ikke nødvendig at bruge programmet, men der er behov for at hente opdateringer.

Hvorfor denne ansøgning kan være nyttige:
I hepatitis terapi, patienter tage mere end én hepatitis medicin ad gangen og eventuelt andre lægemidler til behandling af co-eksisterende forhold. Mange af de lægemiddelkombinationer har potentiale til at interagere og dette kan påvirke hverken patientens sikkerhed eller effektiviteten af ​​behandlingen. Derfor bør ikke gives nogle lægemiddelkombinationer overhovedet, mens andre lægemidler kan anvendes sammen med forsigtighed, eventuelt kræver justeringer dosis eller tid administration. Denne applikation er en guide til interaktioner, der kan opstå mellem forskellige hepatitis narkotika og andre medikamenter, at HCV og / eller HBV-inficerede patienter kan ordineres. Applikationen opdateres løbende som nye data frem. Alle detaljer om interaktioner kan findes på www.hep-druginteractions.org.

Denne ansøgning er baseret på den oprindelige HEP iChart app, men er blevet opdateret til at give verdenssamfundets støtte til både telefoner og tabletter.
