8. Conclusion APhA Policy Committee Report Pharmacists are well positioned in communities across the country and well trained to provide clinical services to patients with emergent and chronic care needs. As FDA and others consider new and innovative ways to increase access to certain medications, it is important that patients have access to pharmacists to assist and counsel patients to ensure that medications are used safely and effectively. APhA supports the concept of dispensing medications with conditions of safe use and appreciates FDA mentioning the use of a pharmacist intervention in addition to innovative technologies as conditions of safe use. A potential new drug paradigm would improve patient access and public health by better leveraging the skills and accessibility of pharmacists, much like the profession has done with the success of pharmacist- administered immunizations. The Association also views the concept being considered by FDA as a great opportunity for pharmacists to further communicate and collaborate with physicians and other providers. Although logistical questions, challenges, and other uncertainties must be resolved, none are significant enough to prevent this important concept from becoming a reality.
