Assessment of Information Sharing on Adverse Drug Reactions by Community Pharmacies with Other Medical Institutions

Widespread coordination and sharing of information regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are important for drug safety assessment. However, the actual status of coordination and sharing of information on ADRs in community pharmacies remains unclear. Therefore, a survey was conducted at community pharmacies to analyze the status. In this cross-sectional study conducted from 31 March 2021 to 9 April 2021, a request letter with the uniform resource locator of the questionnaire form was sent to 302 community pharmacies affiliated with Tsuruha Holdings Inc., and the responses were obtained online. The response rate for the questionnaires was 80.8% (n = 244). In total, 20.9% of the community pharmacies provided information on patients’ ADRs to hospitals or clinics prescribing drugs. None of the community pharmacies provided patient ADR information to other community pharmacies. Of the community pharmacies, 98.8% felt that insufficient information was available to monitor ADRs from hospitals or clinics prescribing drugs. For example, the name of the disease (67.6%), considered to be the most common information, was insufficiently provided. Overall, the existing system for providing information on ADRs between community pharmacies and other medical institutions is insufficient and needs to be developed further

Limited consumption of 100% fruit juices and sugar sweetened beverages in Japanese toddler and preschool children

Japanese toddler and preschool children, ages 1.5–5 years, have lower rates of obesity, ≥95 th percentile body mass index, compared with North American ones. We examined parental reported beverage consumption patterns in 3 Japanese based mother-child cohorts from three different regions of Japan compared with data from cross-sectional and longitudinal studies from North America. Specifically, we used data from the Hamamatsu Birth Cohort for Mothers and Children (HBC Study) in Hamamatsu (Shizuoka Prefecture), the Seiiku Boshi Birth Cohort from Setagaya, Tokyo and the TMM BirThree Cohort Study from Miyagi. We additionally compared cross-sectional data from preschoolers from 24 prefectures in Japan as previously reported from a national study. While Japanese children had lower but comparable rates to North American children for introduction of sugar-sweetened beverages and 100% fruit juices, Japanese children consumed these beverages daily at a much lower level than North American children. Additionally, North American children may get more added sugars from soda and fruit juices as a relative percentage of total added sugar. By contrast, Japanese children consume more sweetened dairy drinks as a relative percentage of total added sugar. Sweetened dairy drinks may have the added benefits of including fats, calcium and probiotics which may be associated with lower risk for obesity compared with consumption of other types of sugar sweetened beverages
