Description: The pharmacist has long been recognized as a widely accessible and available health care professional for patients. Because of this, pharmacists located in the community pharmacy setting are often ideal candidates for providing educational information to patients. Many organizations, such as the American Public Health Association1 and the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists,2 have recently been focused on increasing the involvement of pharmacists in providing preventive care to patients. The provision of information regarding important women’s health issues is an area where pharmacists in the community pharmacy setting can have a strong impact on the primary prevention and early detection of disease. As discussed below, pharmacists can target women at increased risk for various diseases and take advantage of their accessibility to provide health education and screenings to this population.

Description: Research within the past decade has shown that the physiological roles of vitamin D go beyond calcium homeostasis, skeletal development and bone metabolism. The discovery of vitamin D receptors and 1-hydroxylase on a variety of extraskeletal tissues has prompted research on the effects of vitamin D on multiple physiological systems and processes. Vitamin D deficiency is widely known to be directly associated with skeletal diseases such as osteoporosis and rickets. However, vitamin D deficiency has also been linked to diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cognitive decline, and certain cancers. Due to the increasing prevalence and emerging evidence of consequences of vitamin D deficiency, it is becoming an important health concern. In the past two years, the recommended daily allowance (RDA) for vitamin D has been increased twice for infants, toddlers, adolescents, and adults.(1,2)

Description: Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a progressive atherosclerotic disease that affects approximately 12% of the adult population.1 Intermittent claudication is a classical symptom of PAD, however, a majority of patients are asymptomatic or present with atypical leg pain. This range of clinical presentation may explain why only 25% of patients are diagnosed and treated for PAD.2 There is an increased risk for cardiovascular events, cerebrovascular events, and mortality with PAD. Education to patients and healthcare professionals is essential for early identification, early symptom control, and aggressive risk factor modification to reduce PAD progression and its cardiovascular events.

Description: Over the counter (OTC) medications have been marketed for use in children of all ages for years. These medications include analgesics, antihistamines, decongestants, cough suppressants, vitamins, topical treatments, and many more. In fact, there are over 800 OTCs just for the treatment of cough and cold. These medications are continually purchased; on average about 95 million packages of medication are sold each year to treat cough and cold in children.1 However, just because these medications are marketed for use in children, does not mean that they are safe or effective, and in actuality, many are not.

Description: Diabetes is becoming more and more common in the United States with much of its incidence associated with unhealthy lifestyles and disparities in health care. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) the number of Americans with diabetes has nearly quadrupled from 1980 (5.6 million) through 2011 (18.8 million) with at least seven million still undiagnosed.1 According to these numbers, there are currently about 25.8 million people in the U.S. that have diabetes and 60 million are estimated to have pre-diabetes, a condition in which blood sugar and insulin are approaching abnormal levels (putting them at high risk for developing diabetes). Based on death certificates in 2007, diabetes was the seventh leading cause of death in the U.S. — being the underlying factor in 71,382 deaths and contributing to the death of an additional 160,022— and it is likely an underreported cause of death.

Description: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative muscular disease that predominately occurs in the adult population. The disease has also been known as motor neuron disease, Charcot’s disease, and Lou Gehrig’s disease.1 Prevalence of ALS is approximately 20% higher in men than it is in women.2 ALS is increasing in incidence at a rate that is faster than can be explained by the aging population.3 It is estimated that 5600 new cases of ALS are diagnosed each year in the United States, and that around 30,000 people may have the disease at any given time. ALS affects between 1.2 and 1.8 per 100,000 individuals. However, as this number takes into account the entire U.S. population, and ALS is a disease that most commonly presents later in a patient’s life; this number is heavily skewed when it comes to overall risk.2

Description:Despite advancement in treatment methods, cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of death in the United States.1 While debate lingers about the utilization of non-traditional risk factors and risk markers for cardiovascular disease, appropriate management utilizing the current standard of care can greatly reduce the risk of CVD. As pharmacists we play a major role by offering therapeutic recommendations based on current guidelines and appropriate education about emerging risk markers. To be an effective clinician, it is important to understand what constitutes a cardiac risk factor and the general pathophysiology of cholesterol homeostasis. The objective of this article is to establish effective management of dyslipidemia while assessing future trends in patient care.
