Abstract     All over the world as well as in Slovenia, the medication consumption is increasing, as are accordingly also the medication costs. Several costs containment measures in order to limit drug prescribing to the debit of compulsory health insurance have been introduced. The first step to improve the situation is to analyse one's own drug prescribing pattern. In this study all the drugs prescribed by the author during the period of four weeks were recorded, together with the related diagnosis: The results were compared with the data from "automatie processing of prescriptions" in Slovenia for the year 2000. Statistically significant differences between both prescribing patterns were confirmed by statistical analysis. These differences can be explained by different factors. A detailed analysis of possible reasons could be the objective of the further research.
Summary     Po svetu in tudi v Sloveniji narašča poraba zdravil. Vse večji so tudi izdatki za zdravila. Da bi obvladovali te stroške, so odgovorne ustanove uvedle več ukrepov, s katerimi se omejuje predpisovanje zdravil v breme obveznega zdravstvenega zavarovanja. Analiza lastnega predpisovanja zdravil je prvi korak k racionalizaciji le-tega. V raziskavi sva štiri tedne beležila vsa zdravila, ki sva jih predpisala. Dobljene rezultate sva primerjala s podatki avtomatske obdelave receptov v Sloveniji za leto 2000. Statistična analiza rezultatov je pokazala statistično značilno razliko med obema vzorcema predpisovanja. Te razlike si je moč razlagati na različne načine, podrobnejša analiza možnih vzrokov pa bi lahko bila predmet nadaljnjih raziskav.
