Abstract

Introduction

Managing chronic diseases requires continuous and careful adjustment of therapeutic regimens. Clinical pharmacists, by closely monitoring therapy outcomes, greatly influence patient adherence and treatment success. This article evaluates their role in chronic disease management across urban India.

Pharmacist-Led Chronic Care Models

Clinical pharmacists assist in optimizing drug therapy through patient-specific medication reviews and lifestyle counseling. In diabetic care, pharmacist interventions led to a 1.2% reduction in HbA1c over 6 months [1]. In hypertensive patients, pharmacists helped 68% reach target blood pressure within three months [2].

Through motivational interviewing and follow-up calls, they enhance adherence to cardiovascular and asthma medication regimens [3]. Their participation in disease-specific clinics, especially in tertiary centers, ensures comprehensive drug monitoring [4]. Furthermore, clinical pharmacists play a pivotal role in improving access to and rational use of insulin and statins [5].
