Clinical Trial Summary

Pharmacist services such as medication review, counselling and treatment adherence clinics can improve clinical, health related quality of life and economic outcomes. To prove this hypothesis a step-wedge, cluster randomized controlled trial will be held in primary care centers of the public health system of Malaysia. Participants who have a high risk of cardiovascular risk factors currently seeking care in primary care will be recruited. Control group will receive usual care and the intervention arm will be seen by a pharmacist prior to their follow-up, with a comprehensive medication review, counselling and dietary advice consultations every month for three months. Participating pharmacist will be trained in cardiovascular prevention pharmacotherapy, interview skills, educational techniques, and develop personalized plan for every participant. The investigators plan to randomize up to 2100 participants who are currently receiving care in the primary care clinics in the district of Petaling by modifying the current workflow in primary care, whereby the investigators aim to get participants who are at high risk to undergo counselling as well as a medication review with proper pharmaceutical care delivered to them prior to seeking their medical doctor to receive care.
