Description

Feature Article: Opioid stewardship in action - Many patients are referred to the UBC Pharmacists Clinic with chronic, uncontrolled, non-cancer pain.

Case Study: Out of drug therapy options? Time for a candid conversation - Pharmacists play a vital role on the patient’s care team, but when multiple failed treatments lead to challenging cases and grieving patients, it is important for pharmacists to set boundaries.
