Therapy Management Weekly

This week in drug therapy management

Every Monday: what moved in our research, what is on the docket, and what it means for the pharmacist who manages drug therapy under an agreement with a physician, and the nurse practitioner or physician assistant who manages it under their own. We watch collaborative drug therapy management statutes and board rules, and the scope each one grants a pharmacist, pharmacist prescriptive authority, test ordering, immunization and initiation authority, protocol and formulary limits written into a state's collaborative practice agreement, prescriptive authority changes for nurse practitioners and physician assistants that move the same therapy and any change to the named instrument in our research.
