In recent decades, the world has undergone a demographic transformation with a rapid growth of the elderly population, resulting in an increased demand for funds to maintain their health and drug consumption. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic changes occurring in the elderly can interfere directly in the adverse effects of drugs and increase the risk of intoxication. In addition, there are external factors interfering with the pharmacotherapy of the elderly, such as inappropriate use and the lack of access to information. Many therapeutic classes of drugs should be used with caution or avoided in the elderly population, such as anti-inflammatory and some anti-hypertensive drugs, diuretics and digitalis. If not managed carefully, these medicines can... |

ABSTRACT The aim of this work was to evaluate the effectiveness of an internet-based continuing education (CE) program on pharmacy-based minor ailment schemes (PMASs). A controlled randomized clinical trial was conducted in community pharmacies in Brazil. Community pharmacists (CPs) were enrolled in two groups: intervention (n = 61) and control (n = 60). CPs who were enrolled to the intervention group participated in an Internet-based CE program. CPs in the control group received no educational intervention. We evaluated participant perception, learning outcomes, and practice performance. Learner satisfaction with the CE program was high for every point evaluated (mean ± standard deviation = 4.2 ± 0.4). Posttest learner outcome scores and practice... |

Diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM2) affects millions of people worldwide and causes several complications for the patient, consuming large sums of financial resources from the health services. This study aims to estimate the financial investment of DM2 treatment for glycemic control of the patient, from the point of view of the municipal Public Health System (SUS). The Delphi technique was used to validate the opinion of a team of judges, specialists in DM2, and health service managers, on the investment necessary for glycemic control of patients with DM2 through the application of questionnaires. In order for the patient to achieve glycated hemoglobin (A1c) < 7%, an investment of US$ 2,419.06 (value/patient/year) is necessary. As the value of A1c increases,... |
