Pharmacists play a critical role in the healthcare system. They work tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure patients get the medications they need. Pharmacists are well-trained to dispense prescriptions and educate patients about how to safely and effectively use them.
They have become trusted members of the patient’s healthcare team who can help prevent adverse drug events by identifying potential drug-related problems and medication reviews.
While their primary responsibility is to dispense medications, pharmacists also provide essential services such as:
- Provide expert advice on prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, herbal remedies, dietary supplements, or homeopathic remedies.
- Review new prescriptions with physicians to ensure they are appropriate for the patient’s condition.
- Monitor patients’ progress while taking medications through follow-up consultations or phone calls.
- Administer immunization (including flu shots) and manage chronic diseases such as diabetes and high blood pressure.
