Abstract
We developed and introduced our Drug Information System (DIS) Ver. 1 into the Kumamoto University Hospital (KUH) computer system in 1982. Since KUH's computer system was recently replaced by a distributed data processing system based on a UNIX operating system, we updated the DIS to ensure the best possible use is made of the MEDIS-DC drug information files by UMIN. The system was edited easily with a word processor using UMIN's database. We can update the drug database at any time using our database to edit the hospital formulary and bulletins on drug-related topics. Moreover, our drug information services can be accessed not only at the point of prescription order entry but also in an isolation model. Therefore all health care professionals from clinicians and pharmacists to nurses are able to easily access our system at any time on any computer terminal in hospital.
