Sažetak
Aim To introduce participants to the process of pharmaceutical consultation. Content An important aspect of providing pharmaceutical care is the interaction between the pharmacist and the patient. The process of consultation is key to the identification of medication related problems ; in particular those issues of significant concern to the patient which may have an impact on the way patients use their medicines. The literature highlights that between 30 and 50 % of patients with chronic diseases do not take their medicines as prescribed. Whilst pharmacists focus on addressing physical or cognitive barriers associated with unintentional non-adherence there is a growing body of evidence which suggests that the patient’s views in relation to their illnesses and its treatment are important determinants of adherence.
