Under OBRA-90, what must every patient receive an offer for regarding their medications?

Under OBRA-90, every patient is required to be offered counseling by a pharmacist regarding their medications. This legislation emphasizes the importance of patient education and ensures that patients have the opportunity to receive essential information about their medications, including how to take them, potential side effects, and any interactions with other drugs. The counseling is designed to empower patients to take an active role in their own healthcare and to better manage their medications effectively. This focus on patient education is a critical component of pharmaceutical care and aligns with the goal of improving patient outcomes and medication safety.
