Abstract
Pharmacoepidemiological studies are necessary to improve the system of rational use of drugs and to identify the most problematic areas. Such studies make it possible to evaluate not only quantitative indicators of consumption but also indicators such as patient adherence, frequency of cases of polypharmacy, and drug abuse.
