Community Based Intervention01:30

Community Based Intervention

586
Community-based interventions in mental health represent a paradigm shift from institution-centered care to treatments embedded within the fabric of local communities. By prioritizing inclusion and leveraging existing societal structures, this approach fosters a supportive environment conducive to addressing mental health challenges while promoting individual dignity and agency.
Foundations of Community Mental Health Programs
Central to the success of community-based interventions is the...

Drug Therapy01:28

Drug Therapy

411
The advent of drug therapy has profoundly shaped modern mental health care, providing targeted treatments for a range of psychological disorders. Psychotherapeutic drugs, classified into antianxiety, antidepressant, and antipsychotic medications, address symptoms across anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and schizophrenia. While these medications have transformed patient outcomes, they require careful management due to their potential side effects and limitations.

Drug Dosage Regimen: Overview01:15

Drug Dosage Regimen: Overview

4.7K
A drug dosage regimen describes the specific instructions and schedule for administering a drug to a patient. It considers factors such as drug dosage, frequency, route of administration, and duration of treatment. Designing an appropriate dosage regimen for a patient aims to achieve a target drug concentration at the site of action.
Typically, the starting dose and dosing interval are guided by the manufacturer's recommendations based on clinical trials conducted during and after drug...

Drug Dosing: Geriatric Patients

355
Elderly individuals encompass a diverse population with varying degrees of age-related physiological changes. Defining the elderly presents challenges, as the geriatric population is often arbitrarily categorized as individuals older than 65. However, many individuals in this group lead active and healthy lives, with an increasing number surpassing 85 years and falling into the older elderly category. Physiological changes associated with aging impact performance capacity and homeostatic...

Modified-Release Drug Delivery Systems: Rate-Programmed I01:22

Modified-Release Drug Delivery Systems: Rate-Programmed I

104
Rate-programmed drug delivery systems (DDS) are designed to release drugs at specific, controlled rates to maintain consistent therapeutic levels. These systems are categorized based on their release mechanisms, including dissolution-controlled DDS, diffusion-controlled DDS, and combined dissolution-diffusion-controlled DDS.In dissolution-controlled DDS, the release rate depends on the slow dissolution of the drug itself or the surrounding matrix. Drugs with inherently slow dissolution rates,...

Modified-Release Drug Delivery Systems: Rate-Programmed II01:19

Modified-Release Drug Delivery Systems: Rate-Programmed II

91
Rate-programmed drug delivery systems release drugs in a controlled manner to maintain therapeutic levels. Three main designs include reservoir, matrix, and hybrid systems.Reservoir systems consist of a drug core enclosed within a membrane that controls drug release. In non-swelling reservoir systems, polymers like ethyl cellulose or polymethacrylates are used. These do not hydrate in aqueous media and control release through membrane thickness, porosity, or insolubility. This type includes...

    Area of Science:

    • Pharmacy Practice and Patient Care
    • Medication Management Services

    Background:

    • Community pharmacies are increasingly offering medication synchronization programs to improve patient adherence and convenience.
    • Assessing patient satisfaction is crucial for evaluating the effectiveness and sustainability of these pharmaceutical services.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate participant satisfaction with a community pharmacy-based medication synchronization program called Time My Meds (TMM).

    Main Methods:

    • A single grocery store pharmacy location implemented the Time My Meds (TMM) program.
    • Patients with three or more chronic medications were enrolled and participated for at least 3 months.
    • A 10-statement paper survey using a 5-point Likert scale assessed overall satisfaction.

    Main Results:

    • Data from 48 surveys were analyzed, showing high overall participant satisfaction.
    • Median satisfaction scores for all survey items were 5 out of 5 (strongly agree).
    • No significant differences in satisfaction were observed based on demographics or prior pharmacy visit frequency.

    Conclusions:

    • Participants expressed high satisfaction with the medication synchronization program.
    • The findings support the value of medication synchronization services in community pharmacies.
    • Further research with larger populations could strengthen the justification for implementing such programs.
