Ensuring that clients are taking their medications as prescribed
Proper use and medication adherence play a vital role in effective medication management. But to do so, patients and care providers must be well aware of essential information regarding drug effects, dosages, reactions, and restrictions.
Depending on the level of drug information required by patients, drug counseling at Bald Eagle Pharmacy may cover the following:
- Patient information on drug therapy
- Comparison of maintenance medications and bridging of discrepancies
- Screening of previous drug-related problems
- Review of drug indications, interactions, and potential adverse effects
Our pharmacists will carefully walk patients through the counseling process to promote their understanding of drug therapy.
Lifestyle Modification
Recommendation for lifestyle modifications is the initial step taken after a drug counseling session. This aims to enhance the quality of living of patients with the help of a pharmacist’s guidance and intervention.
