abstract: 'The outbreak of COVID-19 in low- and middle-income countries is
|
|
|
|
worrisome due to the social inequalities in these countries, their
|
|
|
|
limited health budgets and the significant burden of other acute and
|
|
|
|
chronic diseases. The leap in the number of cases in Brazil has imposed
|
|
|
|
a huge strain on the healthcare system. We sought to provide a
|
|
|
|
comprehensive overview of the challenges encountered by pharmacy
|
|
|
|
services in responding to the COVID-19 pandemic emergency in Brazil and
|
|
|
|
discuss the role of clinical pharmacists in this context. Pharmaceutical
|
|
|
|
services play a key role in the emergency response to the pandemic. The
|
|
|
|
pharmacy workforce has been actively working to manage drug shortages,
|
|
|
|
redesign workflow, and review drug formularies/protocols to improve
|
|
|
|
safety for patients and healthcare professionals (HCPs). COVID-19
|
|
|
|
patients may present high risk in the use of medications and clinical
|
|
|
|
pharmacists can contribute substantially as part of a multidisciplinary
|
|
|
|
team to improve outcomes in drug therapy in severe and critical illness.
|
|
|
|
The participation of pharmacists as members of antimicrobial stewardship
|
|
|
|
programs should be enhanced to ensure appropriate and safe use of
|
|
|
|
antibiotics in this context. HCPs should be encouraged to seek
|
|
|
|
improvements in the performance of pharmaceutical services and
|
|
|
|
innovative practices to respond to the pandemic. Further studies are
|
|
|
|
needed to generate knowledge on COVID-19 to improve patient care in
|
|
|
|
vulnerable populations.'
