Abstract: Objective To establish and discuss the drug utility related risk causal model. Methods The works concerning the foundation of this article, namely risk theory and pharmacotherapeutics, were summarized and analyzed. Results & Conclusion Hazard, loss, peril were the three key elements of risk, they constituted the causal model together with contributory and intercept factors, which took important role in complex system. In the view of causal model, the drug characters were the hazard, which contributed most drug related peril and loss. The contributory factors included the healthcare staff's clinical decision and related implementation, as well as the condition of the patients. The regulation, SOPs and individual experience, perception and communication were acted as intercept factors. The casual model would give rise to the acknowledgement of the drug related risk source, process, which would enhance drug utility management.
