In clinical practice, drug–drug interactions (DDIs) pose significant risks to a large number of patients. Consequently, healthcare providers are required to diligently identify, monitor, and effectively handle these interactions in order to enhance patient outcomes. In Egypt, DDIs are poorly addressed, with no reports for DDIs in primary care. In our cross-sectional, retrospective, observational study, we collected a total of five thousand, eight hundred and twenty prescriptions across eight major governorates in Egypt. Prescriptions were collected over a span of 15 months between 1 June 2021 and 30 September 2022. These prescriptions were analyzed for potential DDIs using the Lexicomp®drug interactions tool. The prevalence of DDIs was found to be 18%, with 22% of the prescriptions having two or more potential DDIs. Moreover, we found 1447 DDIs of categories C (monitoring therapy recommended), D (therapy modification suggested), and X (avoid combination). The most commonly interacting drugs in our study were diclofenac, aspirin, and clopidogrel, while non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) were the most reported therapeutic class implicated in pharmacologic DDIs. Pharmacodynamic agonistic activity was the most common mechanism of interaction. Therefore, it is crucial to conduct screenings, detect early signs, and closely monitor drug–drug interactions (DDIs) to enhance patients’ overall health outcomes, medication responses, and safety. In this regard, the clinical pharmacist assumes a vital role in implementing these preventive measures.
