Abstract

Introduction: Psoriasis is a persistent, chronic, inflammatory cutaneous disorder that recurs frequently and has negative impacts on the living quality of sufferers.

Methods: Data from the Inpatient and Outpatient Department medical records at Can Tho dermatology hospital were used to generate a descriptive statistics report on medicines and medical costs for psoriasis therapy in 2019-2021.

Results: The average number of prescription medications varied annually, averaging roughly 0.62±85.4% per prescription. Corticosteroids and calcipotriol were the most commonly recommended drugs for psoriasis. Antihistamines were the most often used medication, with over 12,000 instances among the 28,397 individuals studied. The peak in average per-treatment expenses occurred in 2021 when they fluctuated between US $120 and US $160. In contrast, examination expenses were the most costly, ranging from US $93-$107.

Conclusion: The bulk of psoriasis therapy treatments were topical agents, whose quantities rose progressively. Direct examination expenses accounted for the greatest proportion.

引言:银屑病是一种持续的慢性炎症性皮肤病,经常复发,对患者的生活质量有负面影响。方法:使用Can Tho皮肤病医院住院和门诊病历的数据,生成2019-2021年银屑病治疗药物和医疗费用的描述性统计报告。结果:处方药的平均数量每年变化,平均每张处方约0.62±85.4%。皮质类固醇和钙泊三醇是治疗银屑病最常见的推荐药物。抗组胺药是最常用的药物,在28397名受试者中有12000多例。平均每次治疗费用的峰值出现在2021年,当时费用在120美元至160美元之间波动。相比之下,检查费用是最昂贵的,从93美元到107美元不等。结论:银屑病治疗的大部分是外用药物,其数量逐渐增加。直接考试费用占比最大。
