| Abstract | Purpose: Drug utilization research (DUR) contributes to inform policymaking and to
strengthen health systems. The availability of data sources is the first step for conducting DUR. However, documents that systematize these data sources in Latin
American (LatAm) countries are not known. We compiled the potential data sources
for DUR in the LatAm region.
Methods: A network of DUR experts from nine LatAm countries was assembled and
experts conducted: (i) a website search of the government, academic, and private
health institutions; (ii) screening of eligible data sources, and (iii) liaising with national
experts in pharmacoepidemiology (via an online survey). The data sources were characterized by accessibility, geographic granularity, setting, sector of the data, sources
and type of the data. Descriptive analyses were performed.
Results: We identified 125 data sources for DUR in nine LatAm countries. Thirtyeight (30%) of them were publicly and conveniently available; 89 (71%) were accessible with limitations, and 18 (14%) were not accessible or lacked clear rules for data
access. From the 125 data sources, 76 (61%) were from the public sector only;
46 (37%) were from pharmacy records; 43 (34%) came from ambulatory settings and;
85 (68%) gave access to individual patient-level data.
Conclusions: Although multiple sources for DUR are available in LatAm countries,
the accessibility is a major challenge. The procedures for accessing DUR data should
be transparent, feasible, affordable, and protocol-driven. This inventory could permit
a comparison of drug utilization between countries identifying potential medicationrelated problems that need further exploration | en_US |
