Article Synopsis
- Additional monitoring medicines often have limited safety information due to rare adverse drug reactions not being detected in clinical trials, highlighting the need for real-world studies.
- A study involving community pharmacists aimed to enhance safety, treatment adherence, and patient knowledge about these medicines in chronic disease patients, showing promising results over a six-month period.
- Significant reductions in adverse drug reactions and patient non-adherence were achieved, alongside improved understanding of medicines and enhanced quality of life for patients.
Drugs do not disappear once they have been excreted. In fact, 992 active principles have already been measured in the different environmental matrices. A recent study led by scientists from the University of York has studied the presence of drugs in the rivers of more than 100 different countries, showing that environmental contamination by pharmaceuticals is a global issue and that, concentrations found are frequently harmful to the environment.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFUnlabelled: The presence of pharmaceuticals in the environment is an issue of growing concern. The European Commission adopted the "European Union Strategic Approach to Pharmaceuticals in the Environment", which focuses on actions to reduce the risk of pharmaceuticals in the environment, including how environmental aspects can become part of medical training programs.
Objective: Obtain data from pharmacy students about pharmaceutical pollution to provide information about the training needs that may help develop new actions related to the training and dissemination of this issue.
