In 2019, a review of the literature found 30 to 70% of prescription-free consultations in Northern Europe and 10 to 22% in Southern Europe and underlined the scarcity of quantitative data. Different factors contribute to this heterogeneity, such as product availability and status, modes of management, distribution channels, clinical practice recommendations, public policies targeting certain classes, etc. The main objective of our study was to quantify the rate of prescription-free consultations in general practice in France in 2021. The secondary objective was to characterize prescription-free consultations and analyze their determinants.</p></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><p>This was a quantitative observational study conducted using self-questionnaires among patients in medical practices in Auvergne.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>Out of 540 questionnaires, the rate of prescription-free consultations was 24% (95% CI [20.11–27.41]). Prescription-free consultations were for prevention, administrative problems, and gestures. The limiting factors are “feeling a need for a medication” (OR<!--> <!-->=<!--> <!-->0,006), “not knowing if a medication is needed” (OR<!--> <!-->=<!--> <!-->0.11) and “consultations for acute reasons” (OR<!--> <!-->=<!--> <!-->0.33).</p></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><p>Acute consultations limit prescription-free consultations. General practitioners (GPs) probably overestimate patients’ expectation of drug prescription. The French GP must be supported in their decision to not prescribe drugs. This is a long-term investment of time, to educate patients and avoid new consultations for acute reasons. A tool to help doctors manage non-prescription during acute consultations will be created in a future study in France.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":23147,"journal":{"name":"Therapie","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S004059572300104X/pdfft?md5=f2b8af16cae065d0d1d5837deedecdfb&pid=1-s2.0-S004059572300104X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10073292","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A severe hypophosphatemia can lead to serious complications (acute heart or respiratory failure, </span>rhabdomyolysis<span>, hemolysis…) and increases mortality in patients at risk. Various drugs are known to induce hypophosphatemia through various mechanisms. The aim of this study was to highlight the main drugs associated with hypophosphatemia and to deduce the underlying mechanisms based on a descriptive analysis and a case/non-case analysis using the cases of drug-induced hypophosphatemia reported to the French Pharmacovigilance Network. A total of 368 cases of hypophosphatemia were included in the study. Patients’ mean age was 52</span></span> <!-->±<!--> <!-->18 years.

For these five drugs, a significant disproportionality was found. Tenofovir-disoproxil related hypophosphatemia occurred more than one year after its introduction, and a renal tubulopathy<span> (Fanconi's syndrome) was reported in 44 cases (25%). Hypophosphatemia related to iron carboxymaltose occurred within a median of 20 days after injection and was mostly severe. Mechanism included the fibroblast growth factor 23 which can be measured to confirm drug origin. Concerning anti-osteoporosis treatments, hypophosphatemia could be explained by their mechanism of action (abrupt increase of </span></span>parathormone<span> induced by hypocalcemia) but the patient history (malignancy condition) was a major bias. For hydrochlorothiazide, hyphosphatemia was often moderate, associated with other electrolytic disturbances and occurred during a long-term treatment. Awareness of healthcare professionals is essential to detect as soon as possible hypophosphatemia and its complications related to these drugs.</span></span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":23147,"journal":{"name":"Therapie","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10081816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
