| Abstract: | Background: Acutely poisoned patients sometimes require immediate treatment with an antidote and delay in treatment can be fatal. Antidote is a therapeutic substance used to counteract the toxic actions of a specified xenobiotic. The purpose of our study was to determine the availability of 13 selected antidotes at general hospitals of Kathmandu Valley. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out in 69 general hospitals of Kathmandu valley. The data was collected by interviewing representative of hospital pharmacy using semi-structured questionnaire. Results: The most frequently encountered poisoning was found to be Organophosphate poisoning (93.1%). 32.8% poisoning cases were encountered twice in a month. No hospitals in Kathmandu valley stocked all 13 antidotes. The highly available antidote was Atropine 82.6% while least available was Antivenom (2.9%). Large teaching hospitals and Government hospitals have large availability of antidotes than Small Non-teaching hospitals and Non-government. 81.2% hospitals were available with at least one antidote, 8.7% hospitals were unavailable with any antidote while 10.1% hospitals do not take and treat poison cases. Majority of antidotes are manufactured by India (72.2%) while least by Nepal (11.1%). 36.2% hospitals refer while 46.4% borrow the antidotes from nearby hospital. Only 17.4% hospitals perform formal stock review of antidotes by pharmacist and nurses. Conclusion: There is not sufficient and uniform availability of all the antidotes in any hospital of Kathmandu valley. Majority of hospitals don’t have activity of performing stock review by health care professionals. Local guidelines for accessibility of antidotes need to be developed and made available to hospital pharmacies and emergency department. |
