The Role of the Pharmacist in Clinical Settings (8): Efforts to Support Prescribing by Board-certified Pharmacists Attending Examinations in Outpatient Cancer Chemotherapy Clinics and Associated Problems

In the authors' hospital, one pharmacist contributes to the outpatient cancer chemotherapy clinic as a full-time staff member. To strengthen cooperation with doctors, pharmacists have, since October 2016, been giving advice during outpatient medical examinations on prescriptions, treatment policy, and supportive therapy. Of the 219 suggestions given so far on prescriptions, 215 (98.2%) were adopted; the corresponding figures for proposed treatment policy are 41/41 (100%), and for proposed supportive therapy 162/166 (97.6%). Because the pharmacists attended the medical examinations, they were able to work with the doctors to gain clear understanding of the patients' situations and problems within the limited examination time, facilitating not only supportive therapy but also treatment policy. This prescription support system has led to higher-quality treatment.
