As a physician or pharmacist caring for a patient who is already taking come medications I want to know which of their problems may be the result of medication side effects or interactions so that I can understand the causes of my patient's problems and manage the problem accordingly
Examples:
Patient is prescribed a medication that prolongs the QT interval and returns later with arrhythmia. Knowing what is causing the QT prolongation allows us to discontinue the offending medication (see https://crediblemeds.org/)
Patient is prescribed a medication that causes atrial fibrillation, is then prescribed an anticoagulant, and then has a bleeding event. Could we identify the first drug as the cause of atrial fibrillation and discontinue it instead of adding an anticoagulant?
