Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices of Community Pharmacists About Nutrition and Lifestyle Medications and Counseling in the Aseer Region of Saudi Arabia: A Cross-Sectional Study

Reforms in pharmacy education, ongoing training, and incorporation into national preventive healthcare initiatives are necessary. Empowering pharmacists is consistent with the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030 to enhance public health and chronic illness management.
