Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a multifaceted disorder influenced by various factors. Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) present a notable risk factor for hospitalization among patients with CKD. This study aimed to assess the frequency and attributes of potential DDIs (pDDIs) in patients with CKD and to ascertain the concordance among different Clinical Decision Support Software (CDSS). A cross-sectional study was conducted in a nephrology outpatient clinic at a university hospital. The pDDIs were identified and evaluated using Lexicomp ® and Medscape ® . The patients' characteristics, comorbidities, and medicines used were recorded. The concordance of different CDSS were evaluated using the Kendall W coefficient. An evaluation of 1121 prescribed medications for 137 patients was carried out. The mean age of the patients was 64.80 ± 14.59 years, and 41.60% of them were male. The average year with CKD was 6.48 ± 5.66. The mean number of comorbidities was 2.28 ± 1.14. The most common comorbidities were hypertension, diabetes, and coronary artery disease. According to Medscape, 679 pDDIs were identified; 1 of them was contraindicated (0.14%), 28 (4.12%) were serious-use alternative, and 650 (9.72%) were interventions that required closely monitoring. According to Lexicomp, there were 604 drug-drug interactions. Of these interactions, 9 (1.49%) were in the X category, 60 (9.93%) were in the D category, and 535 (88.57%) were in the C category. Two different CDSS systems exhibited statistically significant concordance with poor agreement (W = 0.073, p < 0.001). Different CDSS systems are commonly used in clinical practice to detect pDDIs. However, various factors such as the operating principles of these programs and patient characteristics can lead to incorrect guidance in clinical decision making. Therefore, instead of solely relying on programs with lower reliability and consistency scores, multidisciplinary healthcare teams, including clinical pharmacists, should take an active role in identifying and preventing pDDIs. |
