Pharmaceutical care concepts - clinical pharmacy ShaistaSumayya
The pharmaceutical care is defined as “the direct, responsible provision of medication-related care for the purpose of achieving definite outcomes that improve a patient’s quality of life.”
Pharmaceutical care involves the process through which a pharmacist cooperates with a patient and other professional in designing , implementation, and monitoring a therapeutic plan that will produce specific therapeutic outcomes for the patient

Detection and reporting
Methods in Causality assessment
Severity and seriousness assessment
Predictability and preventability assessment
Management of adverse drug reactions
Introduction: Medication adherence is defined by the World Health Organisation as “The degree to which the person's behaviour corresponds with the agreed recommendations from a health care provider
Factor Affecting Non-Adherance:Poor adherence or non-adherence to medical treatment severely compromises patient outcomes and increases patient mortality.
Non-adherence is a very common phenomenon in all patients with drug-taking behaviour.
The complexity of adherence is the result of an interplay of a range of factors, including patient views and attributes, illness characteristics, social contexts, access, and service issues.
Non-adherence: Non-adherence is the failure or refusal to comply with advice and can imply disobedience on the part of patient
5 step Factors: Social/economic and Economic Factors
Provider-patient/health care system factors
Condition-related factors
Therapy-related factors
Patient-related factors
Behavioural Factors:
Life style (smoking, alcohol, coffee use) Psychological and personality factors: anxiety, depression, coping style
Biological factors:
Gender, age, and genetic predisposition
Social and cultural factors:

Information Factors:
Have you received enough information? Satisfaction with the last visit?
Awareness factors:
Severity of the complaints (Baseline) quality of life,
Locus of control about patient adherence:
internal and external, stability and control about the cause of the complaints: internal and external, stability and controllability.

Polypharmacy and Rational Prescribing in Elderly Patients.pptxAhmed Mshari
Polypharmacy is typically defined as the prescription of five or more medications.
It also refers to the prescription of medications that do not have a specific current indication, that duplicate other medications, or that are known to be ineffective for the condition being treated.
In other words, polypharmacy is the use of multiple medications that are unnecessary and have the potential to do more harm than good.

Differentiation between pleasant and harmful food
Influence on behavior
Selection of food based on metabolic needs
Receptors of Taste:
Taste buds on the tongue
Influence of sense of smell, texture of food, and pain stimulation (e.g., by pepper)
Primary and Secondary Taste Sensations:
Primary taste sensations: Sweet, Sour, Salty, Bitter, Umami
Chemical basis and signal transduction mechanisms for each taste
Taste Threshold and Index:
Taste threshold values for Sweet (sucrose), Salty (NaCl), Sour (HCl), and Bitter (Quinine)
Taste index relationship: Inversely proportional to taste threshold
Taste Blindness:
Inability to taste certain substances, particularly thiourea compounds
Example: Phenylthiocarbamide
Structure and Function of Taste Buds:
Composition: Epithelial cells, Sustentacular/Supporting cells, Taste cells, Basal cells
Features: Taste pores, Taste hairs/microvilli, and Taste nerve fibers
Location of Taste Buds:
Found in papillae of the tongue (Fungiform, Circumvallate, Foliate)
Also present on the palate, tonsillar pillars, epiglottis, and proximal esophagus
Mechanism of Taste Stimulation:
Interaction of taste substances with receptors on microvilli
Signal transduction pathways for Umami, Sweet, Bitter, Sour, and Salty tastes
Taste Sensitivity and Adaptation:
Decrease in sensitivity with age
Rapid adaptation of taste sensation
Role of Saliva in Taste:
Dissolution of tastants to reach receptors
Washing away the stimulus
Taste Preferences and Aversions:
Mechanisms behind taste preference and aversion
Influence of receptors and neural pathways
Impact of Sensory Nerve Damage:
Degeneration of taste buds if the sensory nerve fiber is cut
Abnormalities of Taste Detection:
Conditions: Ageusia, Hypogeusia, Dysgeusia (parageusia)
Causes: Nerve damage, neurological disorders, infections, poor oral hygiene, adverse drug effects, deficiencies, aging, tobacco use, altered neurotransmitter levels
Neurotransmitters and Taste Threshold:
Effects of serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) on taste sensitivity
Supertasters:
25% of the population with heightened sensitivity to taste, especially bitterness
Increased number of fungiform papillae

Examples of vector-borne diseases include Dengue fever, West Nile Virus, Lyme disease, and malaria.
2. DEFINITION
BACKGROUND
METHODS OF ASSESSING COMPLIANCE.
Factors concerned with compliance.
BARRIERS TO COMPLIANCE
IMPROVEMENT OF COMPLIANCE .
NON-COMPLIANCE FACTORS.
3. DEFINITION
PATIENT COMPLIANCE : The degree to which
the patient correctly follows medical advice;(medication, diet, smoking, or any
lifestyle change).
PATIENT ADHERENCE .
Drug compliance to dose, route, timing, and frequency . Moreover, device use, self-
care & therapy session or the follow-up.
4. Non-compliance
Estimates from the World Health Organization (2003) indicate that only about
50% of patients with chronic diseases in developed countries follow treatment
recommendations
Poor compliance sentiment that, since doctors can be wrong in their diagnoses,
their instructions are sometimes best ignored.
Compliance is difficult to achieve in hypertensive patients who are asymptomatic
prior to the start of treatment the most affected.
5. Non-compliance associated with
Hypertension
The epileptic, diabetic, or asthmatic will soon know about the dangers of poor drug
compliance, whereas the mild hypertensive may only realize its consequences after
months or years.
In respect of anti-hypertensive therapy, only about 50% take at least 80% of their
prescribed medications.
Resistant hypertension, raised blood pressure that does not respond to therapy with standard
drug treatment, may be the result of poor compliance.
Hypertension non-compliance (93% in US, 70% in UK) is the main cause of
uncontrolled hypertension-associated heart attack and stroke.
6. Where to bin the blame ?!
Patient or health-care provider ? Prof. Leslie (Harvard)
7. Methods of Assessing Compliance
Direct :
Blood Level Monitoring (the drug itself, a drug metabolite, or a marker)
Measurement of Urine Drug Excretion.
Indirect :
Pill counts (non-complier may dispose of tablets instead of consuming).
Questionnaires of Patients.
Outcome of Therapy and Presence of Side Effects.(blood pressure).
8. Factors Associated with Noncompliance
1-Patient Characteristics:
-(Weak relation) age, sex & economic status (strong).
2-Disease Characteristics:
- long-term X short-term effect .
3-Treatment Characteristics:
-The majority of treatment failures from non compliance occur within the first few
months.
-The simpler the drug regime , the more likely the patient is to comply.
4-Doctor-Patient Relationship Characteristics.
9. Doctor-Patient Relationship
The most important factor in patient compliance.
Patients may stop drug treatment on their own initiative because of a
lack of understanding of the nature of disease and its treatment .
Inefficiency of the medical service in recalling patients for follow-up.
The medical practitioner is not aware of the need for long-term
treatment.
Bad communication skills.
10. Barriers
Complexity of medication.
Lack of comprehension of treatment benefits.
The occurrence of undiscussed side effects.
The cost of prescription medicine.
Doubting the need for medicine.
Poor health literacy.
Poor communication.
11. Improvement of compliance
Recognition of the "At-Risk" Patient (chronic illness requiring long-term therapy,
and the ill effects of stopping)
Treatment Planning (simple ,minimum number of drugs, Calendar packs &dose
dispensers)
Explaining Treatment (To state that treatment will be "life long" is both potentially
discouraging & inaccurate ).
Patient education.
Social support.
12. conclusion
Doctors should be aware of the problem of noncompliance
Drug regimens should be kept as simple as possible .
If a patient is not responding to treatment, investigation of the possibility of
noncompliance is mandatory.
No doubt that a positive doctor-patient relationship is the most important factor
improving compliance.
