Summarizing Patient Prescription Data
Handling large amounts of prescription data is a common task in pharmacy practice. With the pandas library, you can efficiently summarize and analyze this information to gain valuable insights. For instance, you might want to know how many times each drug has been prescribed, which is crucial for inventory management, identifying trends, and making informed decisions about medication stocking and patient care.
1234567891011121314import pandas as pd # Example DataFrame of patient prescriptions data = { "Patient": ["Alice", "Bob", "Alice", "Derek", "Bob", "Eve", "Alice"], "Drug": ["Amoxicillin", "Ibuprofen", "Ibuprofen", "Amoxicillin", "Paracetamol", "Ibuprofen", "Paracetamol"], "Date": [ "2024-06-01", "2024-06-01", "2024-06-02", "2024-06-02", "2024-06-03", "2024-06-03", "2024-06-04" ] } prescriptions = pd.DataFrame(data) print(prescriptions)
To find out how many times each drug has been prescribed, you can group the DataFrame by the Drug column and count the number of occurrences. This helps you quickly see which medications are most frequently dispensed.
