Abstract

Background: ABC/VEN analysis is a standardized method; however, hospital drug lists need to be regularly updated and analyzed in accordance with new regulations, particularly Circular 20/2022/TT-BYT on health insurance. Analysis of the drug list and drug utilization value according to ABC/VEN and ATC classification supports drug list management, prioritization of procurement and storage, as well as monitoring the rational use of drugs in hospitals. Objectives: To analyze the hospital drug list and drug utilization according to the ABC/VEN matrix and ATC classification at a general hospital in Can Tho City in 2024. Materials and methods: The study included all drugs listed in the hospital formulary and utilized during 2024. A retrospective descriptive study was conducted to analyze the drug list according to the ABC/VEN matrix and ATC classification. Results: Group I (AV, AE, AN, BV, CV) accounted for 71.88% of the total drug utilization value, group II (BE, BN, CE) accounted for 27.69%, and group III (CN) accounted for 0.43%. Combined ABC/VEN and ATC analysis showed that antiinfectives for systemic use (J) represented the highest proportion in group A (27.78%), while drugs for blood and blood-forming organs accounted for the highest proportion in group V (51.6%), reflecting the hospital’s disease pattern. Conclusion: Drug expenditure was primarily concentrated in high-priority group I. ABC/VEN and ATC analyses provided useful evidence for formulary management, procurement planning, and promoting the rational use of medicines. Although group N accounted for a small proportion of drug items, it represented 7.21% of total drug expenditure and therefore requires continued monitoring.
