The role of pharmacists in the management of anticoagulation treatments

1 October 2024

Effective anticoagulation therapy requires careful monitoring and management to ensure safety, efficacy and optimal clinical outcomes while preventing complications. Pharmacists play a key role in the management of anticoagulation therapy through their extensive knowledge of medicines. Their responsibilities include educating patients, identifying medicine interactions, ensuring appropriate dosing and monitoring for adverse effects. This webinar will examine the different roles pharmacists play in anticoagulation management and how they can help improve patient care and outcomes. Join us to explore best practice, current research and practical examples of pharmacist-led anticoagulation services.
