Objective To analyze the occurrence and prevention of adverse reactions in patients receiving combined use of traditional Chinese and Western medicine in outpatient pharmacies. Methods 80 patients who received combined Chinese and Western medicine treatment between January 2022 and December 2023 were selected as the research subjects. The degree of adverse reactions, gender ratio and age, and administration route of adverse reactions were recorded; Results There were 51 cases of mild adverse reactions, accounting for 63.75%, and 19 cases of moderate adverse reactions, accounting for 23.75%. The age group with more adverse reactions is distributed between 40-69 years old and those over 70 years old. The proportion of adverse reactions caused by traditional Chinese medicine injection combined with Western medicine injection is the highest, accounting for 43 cases (53.75%). Conclusion The combination of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine in outpatient pharmacies is mainly characterized by mild adverse reactions, and traditional Chinese medicine injection combined with Western medicine injection is the main method. The probability of adverse reactions in older patients is higher.
