<p>This study aimed to evaluate the effects on the medical economy of the use of tracing reports by pharmacy-based pharmacists for pharmaceutical interventions, including to reduce leftover medicines. These effects were estimated by analyzing 267 tracing reports issued by pharmacy pharmacists over a period of 1 year, 2020–2021. We estimate that these interventions created cost savings of USD108170.02/year (USD104800 via pharmaceutical interventions, USD3370.02 via interventions to reduce leftover medicines). The cost savings from pharmaceutical interventions prompted by patient follow-up was estimated to be USD47650. The medical economic effect per tracing report was estimated to be USD392.51 from pharmaceutical interventions, USD12.62 from reducing leftover medicines, and USD445.33 from pharmaceutical intervention prompted by patient follow-up. Overall, therefore, pharmaceutical interventions by pharmacy pharmacists using tracing reports, including those designed to reduce leftover medicines, may benefit the medical economy.</p>
