Or. Admin. Code § 855-041-6510 - In-patient Drug Profile
(1) Each
pharmacist must ensure that a drug order for a patient requiring continuous
drug therapy is entered into the patient's drug profile. The profile must
contain:
(a) The patient's name, location and
important clinical data such as age, height, weight, sex, chronic disease
states, problem list and allergies;
(b) The drug name, strength, dosage form,
route of administration and directions for administration;
(c) The drug therapy start and end date as
applicable;
(d) The name or ID of
the pharmacist responsible for entry or verification of the drug
order.
(2) Prior to the
drug being released for access by the nurse, a pharmacist must enter the drug
order into a drug profile and perform a DUR except when:
(a) The drug is being dispensed from an
after-hours cabinet in the absence of a pharmacist;
(b) The drug is from an emergency drug kit;
or
(c) A system override is being
used by a LIP or nurse to treat the emergency needs of a patient. Subject to a
prescriber's order, a sufficient quantity to meet the emergency needs of the

drug order.
(3) The
pharmacist must continue to monitor the appropriateness of the patient's drug
utilization throughout the patient's stay in the hospital.
