Pharmacy Department

In the Pharmacy Department, we collaborate with doctors, nurses, and other staff to ensure that drug therapy for each patient is carried out safely and effectively. We play a key role in team medicine by devising dosage forms, selecting storage methods, providing information on the proper use of drugs, and offering medication guidance.

Primary Responsibilities

Cancer Chemotherapy & Regimen Management

Cancer chemotherapy uses anticancer and molecular-targeted drugs. Since side effects are common and errors can be life-threatening, we use “Cancer Chemotherapy Regimens”—a precise chronological plan specifying dosage, speed, and withdrawal periods—to ensure patient safety.

Medication Guidance & Pharmaceutical Management

Pharmacists explain medications to inpatients, check for interactions with home medications, and manage hospital-wide drug inventory and safety procedures. We also monitor narcotics and muscle relaxants used in operating rooms.

Team Medicine

• Infection Control Team (ICT): Monitoring and suppressing infectious diseases.
• Antimicrobial Stewardship Team (AST): Ensuring appropriate use of antimicrobial therapy.
• Nutrition Support Team (NST): Proposing optimal nutritional therapies for patients.

Disposal of Injection Needles

Please place used needles in a hard container (e.g., an empty can or bottle) and bring them to the hospital. Do not dispose of them in household waste; our staff will process them as medical waste.

To patients being admitted

• Please bring all medications you are currently taking (including supplements) upon admission.
