Seguimiento farmacoterapéutico a pacientes diabéticos

In this paper, two cases of pharmaceutical care intervention to diabetic patients are presented, using the Dader methodology. At first, the clinical status of the patients was assessed through a pharmaceutical interview. Later, Necessity, Effectiveness and Safety of treatments of each patient was evaluated in order to detect possible drug-related problems, negative outcomes associated to medication or areas for improvement of pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment. In the following interviews with the patients, we decided with them which interventions we'll make. In the two cases presented, health education was essential to ensure adherence and improve outcomes of pharmacological treatments. In addition, we started a monitoring plan that will serve to optimize the therapy of patients regularly and at any change of the treatment or clinical status.
