A recent online Drug Topics article – Diabetes Mortality Has Increased, But Pharmacists Can Help – underscores the increasing role of today’s pharmacists. No longer found primarily behind the counter dispensing medications, today’s pharmacists are coaches, interventionists, and patient advocates, helping address some of the greatest health challenges facing our nation.

The article explains how pharmacists are uniquely positioned to screen patients for pre-diabetes and diabetes and helping them with HbA1C levels, lifestyle changes, medication, and more. Most patients see their pharmacists regularly – 35 times per year on average, according to the author -- while they may only see their doctor twice a year.
