Do pharmacist interventions improve blood pressure management?
Pharmacist interventions can improve blood pressure control, though the magnitude of effect is highly variable.
Pharmacist interventions - alone or in collaboration with other healthcare professionals - improved BP management. Nevertheless, pharmacist interventions had differential effects on BP, from very large to modest or no effect; and determinants of heterogeneity could not be identified. Determining the most efficient, cost-effective, and least time-consuming intervention should be addressed with further research.
