Community pharmacists’ history taking practice in responding to acute uncomplicated cystitis: A simulated patient study from Sudan
The study has revealed a poor history-taking practice towards acute uncomplicated cystitis during patient assessment. Further studies exploring pharmacists' involvement in patient assessment are required. Strategies to improve community pharmacists' practice, like continuing pharmacy education and providing a national guideline regarding patient assessment should be considered seriously.
