Abstract

Objective: (1) Survey on the use of anti-hypertensive drugs in the Cardiology Department of Can Tho General Hospital in 2023. (2) Determine the rate of drug interactions and rationality in the use of antihypertensive drugs at the Cardiology Department of Can Tho General Hospital in 2023.  Subject and Methods: Cross-sectional, retrospective, non-interventional study based on 360 medical records of patients diagnosed with essential hypertension treated at the Cardiology Department of Can Tho General Hospital in 2023. Result: Angiotensin II receptor blockers are most commonly used (95,6%). Multi-drug regimens (76.9%) was higher than single-drug regimen (23.1%). Target blood pressure accounted for 93.1%. Drug interactions accounted for 31,4% and moderate interaction accounted for the highest proportion (23.3%). The rationality in the use of antihypertensive drugs was 67,5%. Conclusion: Angiotensin II receptor blockers are the most commonly used group of drugs; the rate of using combination therapy was higher than monotherapy; most patients achieved target blood pressure; drug interactions accounted for 31,4% and most had moderate interactions; the rationale for using antihypertensive drugs accounted for 67.5%.
