Abstract:
Little pharmacoeconomic data is available in Japan. Numerous studies of economic evaluation of medications have been published in major English language journals to date. In order to effectively utilize the economic evaluation, information previously reported in many types of medical journals, we must evaluate and appraise them according to medical trends in Japan. It is necessary to have skills to critically appraise the validity of published literature and to strictly validate their quality. As a result, it will become possible to make many types of pharmacoeconomic data applicable to each clinical practice by using a criterion on pharmacoeconomic research from the perspective of a pharmacist.
