Pharmacist-led hospital intervention reduces unintentional patient-generated medication discrepancies after hospital discharge
The study emphasizes the importance of addressing discrepancies made by patients after hospital discharge, which can result in potentially harmful outcomes. It also shows that a pharmacist-led hospital intervention can significantly reduce discrepancies in the early post-discharge period. These findings can guide the development of future services to improve patient support for medication management after hospitalization.
