The RxEACH Study
Patients tend to see their pharmacists more than their family doctors which provides a unique opportunity for patient care and disease management through pharmacy care. The RxEACH study will compare a standard pharmacist’s role to an enhanced role to see if community pharmacists can play a key role in identifying people at high-risk for heart disease and help in their disease management. An enhanced role includes the ability to assess, educate, adapt prescriptions and provide smoking cessation information.
