Optimising Pharmacist-led Medication Reviews in Primary Care

Brief summary (registry, in English)

An increasing number of people are diagnosed with long-term conditions and are prescribed medicines to manage these conditions. Medication reviews (MRs) are used to optimise medicines, improve health outcomes, and decrease medicines related problems. Although medication reviews are widely used in health care settings, there has not been a dramatic change in the the rate at which patients experience poor medicines outcomes such as adverse drug reactions and hospitalisations. This research wants to understand how medication reviews by pharmacists are delivered in GP surgeries and community pharmacies. The research team plans to test a co-designed document, which outlines what pharmacists should do in a MR, in a small number of GP surgeries, on a limited number of patients. Pharmacists and patients who have used this document will be interviewed to understand their thoughts and feelings about the process.
