正在加紧努力改进发展中国家的吸毒做法和开处方行为。开展这项工作的一个基本工具是客观和标准的评估方法。我们在此介绍了在12个发展中国家制作和测试的一套毒品使用指标。我们描述了实际应用，其中包括使用指标，以提高认识处方在马拉维和孟加拉国，以确定行动的优先事项（例如，在印度尼西亚和尼日利亚，在乌干达，苏丹和尼日利亚注射过度使用，和低百分比的病人谁了解剂量表在马拉维），并量化干预措施在也门，乌干达，苏丹和津巴布韦的影响。
Increasing efforts are being made to improve drug-use practices and prescribing behaviour in developing countries. An essential tool for such work is an objective and standard method of assessment. We present here a set of drug-use indicators produced and tested in twelve developing countries. We describe practical applications, which include the use of indicators to increase awareness among prescribers in Malawi and Bangladesh, to identify priorities for action (eg, polypharmacy in Indonesia and Nigeria, overuse of injections in Uganda, Sudan, and Nigeria, and low percentage of patients who understood the dosage schedule in Malawi), and to quantify the impact of interventions in Yemen, Uganda, Sudan, and Zimbabwe.
