Pharmacists are ideally suited to perform lipid management services. For many patients, hyperlipidemia is a symptomless disorder that requires knowledgeable laboratory interpretation, application of treatment guidelines, and appropriate drug therapy selection and monitoring. With the recent availability of portable lipid analyzers, pharmacists have a great opportunity to use their skills in drug therapy management to assist patients and their physicians with lipid management directly in the clinic or pharmacy. Evidence exists that appropriate lipid therapy can improve patient outcomes and save lives, and that delegating this responsibility to a qualified health care practitioner is cost-effective. |
