"The Importance of Staying Up-to-Date in Medication Therapy Management"
Staying current with medication therapy management (MTM) is crucial for pharmacists to ensure patients receive appropriate pharmacotherapy, especially with over 50 new drugs receiving FDA approval in 2023. Strategies for staying up-to-date include participating in topic discussions, joining training programs, and networking through state or national pharmacy associations and platforms like LinkedIn. Continuing education, such as attending conferences and obtaining live CE credits, is also essential for pharmacists to expand their MTM knowledge and skills.
