The Consultant Pharmacist

Pharmacists improve patient compliance by individualizing drug delivery systems, the expansion of these services to include one on one consultation. Consulting by pharmacists is not a new idea, however the laws that require a pharmacist to consult with the patient about prescribed medication address the minimum expectations of all pharmacists. Bellevue Pharmacy has expanded our role as consultant pharmacists by including management of the patient therapy for the condition. The consultant pharmacist can inform the patient's physician of his or her recommendation and provide extensive education for the patient and their physician. Thus advocating increased pharmaceutical care for the patient. This can also include follow-up consultations to maintain optimum and long-term health.

Bioidentical Hormone Consultation Service

What Should You Expect From Your Pharmacist?

The first step to customized hormone therapy management begins with you. When hormone therapy is a consideration, it is important to recognize that we are all unique individuals and that one size does not fit all. At Bellevue Pharmacy, the consulting pharmacists are experts in the field of bioidentical hormone solutions and each is trained to recognize the individual differences that make you special. Our primary objective is to revive the consultant role of the pharmacist in patient care through:

• Education--by providing detailed information about your condition, possible drug therapy, including drug interactions and lifestyle modifications. To ultimately help the physician and patient achieve a more positive therapeutic outcome.
• Analysis of your individual needs thru a confidential patient evaluation form that can be completed on-line, followed by laboratory analysis to objectively identify hormonal imbalance. And then provide individual recommendations for treatment and long term hormonal management.
• Prevent and reduce any side effects of therapy by monitoring and adjusting therapy to the lowest effective level thru on-going consultations.
• Enhance long-term health--through life long dialogue and customized bioidentical hormone therapy. Therapy matched to our changing health status and lifestyle.
