💊 Reducing Prescription Errors: The Role of Clinical Pharmacists in Primary Care. 💊
Managing medications for patients with chronic conditions is key to improving their quality of life, but it comes with challenges like dosing accuracy, drug interactions, and compliance. Clinical pharmacists step in by conducting medication reviews, counselling patients, and optimising prescriptions to reduce errors and improve safety.
