Reasons for the Action(s) / Pros and Cons: The basic function of a pharmacist is to educate each patient about the medication he or she is taking. The simplest and most effective way to ensure that this job is being done is for the pharmacist to counsel each patient on every new medication that is being dispensed and expressing the ...

Reasons for the Action(s) / Pros and Cons: Many states are enabling pharmacists and physicians to establish collaborative practice agreements. A set of guidelines for commonly used safe therapeutic interchanges would provide a starting point for pharmacists who wish to initiate these collaborative practice ...

Reasons for the Action(s) / Pros and Cons: There is currently no unified organization for pharmacy organizations to provide a singular voice for all pharmacists in the country (like the AMA for doctors). This divide causes difficulty when lobbying for pharmacists’ ...

Reasons for the Action(s) / Pros and Cons: Many energy drinks and foods contain items like ginseng, but there is no labeling of the type of ginseng or potency of the herb used. This resolution promotes the labeling of all food and beverages that contain such herbs in an effort to let the patient population know exactly what they are consuming. Chris ...

Reasons for the Action(s) / Pros and Cons: While PGY1 residency programs are currently funded by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services, PGY2 residencies are solely supported by private institutions. The federal funding of PGY2 residencies would enable a larger amount and more varied types of specializing residencies to be founded across the US. This ...
