E-Prescribing system provides prescribing drugs electronically that can be a stand-alone system or be integrated with Electronic Health Records (EHRs) system. When implementing an E-Prescribing system, we need to consider it’s benefits and barriers, also adopting factors that can affect the success of the implementation. The main advantage of using an E-Prescribing system is to increase patient safety, meanwhile, the biggest barriers and challenges are it’s cost-related and adaptation by health facilities and related health workers.
