Given the increasing emphasis on the translation of clinical and basic research outcomes in medical institutions, numerous problems have emerged in the management of investigational drug dispensing related to such research. This study combined with existing regulations and years of experience in dispensing management, analyzes the current situation and proposes countermeasures. It first clarifies the scope of investigational drugs in medical institutions, including those used in basic research and clinical research. It analyzes the different scenarios and existing problems in the dispensing management of these two types of drugs. These issues may affect drug quality, lead to adverse events or drug loss, and in severe cases, compromise research quality, data authenticity, and the safety of study participants. The findings suggest that medical institutions should establish specific systems for the dispensing management of both basic and clinical research drugs, clarify responsible departments, standardize management processes, and regulate dispensing operations to reduce risks associated with the use of investigational drugs. Such measures will ensure precise and effective management and provide a reference for the scientific and standardized management of investigational drugs in medical institutions.
