Background: Eritrea is one of the developing countries which has shortage of physicians at all levels. As a result, lower health cadres are authorized to prescribe medicines. In addition, due to shortages of laboratory setups, lab-based therapeutic monitoring is a challenge. The Eritrean society is also highly involved in self-medication; all these could have contributions to ADRs. Thus, the objective of the study is to investigate and analyze the prevalence, causes, and risk factors of Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) among patients admitted to Eritrean hospitals.
