Some researches have already developed fuzzy decision making theoretical algorithms, but there are only a few medical fields of their applications. We thus make a trial of adopting two decision-making algorithms based on unequal objectives and minimization of regret to extract the optimal medicine from a collection of drugs recommended to a patient. A choice of the most efficacious remedy is based on clinical symptoms typical of the considered morbid unit.
