View through CrossRef
Aim: This study was conducted to demonstrate the prescribing pattern of norethisterone in Al-Kharj.
Methodology: This is a retrospective study includes evaluating outpatient prescribing of norethisterone from 1st of January 2018 to 30th of June 2018 in a public hospital in Alkharj.
Results: The age of about 31.03% of the patients who used norethisterone was between 40 and 49 years, the age of 24.14% of them was between 30 and 39, and the age of 24.14% of them were between 20 and 29 years. About 31.03% of the patients used norethisterone for 3 weeks and 17.24% of them used norethisterone for 10 days. Most of the prescriptions that contained norethisterone were prescribed by obstetrics and gynecology department (68.97%).
Conclusion: The prescribing of norethisterone was uncommon in the outpatient setting due to the availability of several alternative drugs. Further studies are needed to investigate the prescribing of norethisterone and its alternatives by the different settings.
