Medication reconciliation is an important component of strategies for preventing adverse events after hospital discharge. Studies show that comprehensive medication interventions (including medication reconciliation) by hospital-based pharmacists can reduce adverse events and readmissions in older patients. This Canadian study sought to evaluate whether medication reconciliation and education by community pharmacists could also achieve the same aims for recently discharged patients. This nonrandomized study used propensity score analysis to evaluate outcomes of patients who received medication reconciliation and review of medication adherence performed by community pharmacists during a dedicated visit. Researchers found that patients receiving the service had a reduction in readmissions and death. The magnitude of benefit was small overall, but it was larger in patients who were filling a new prescription for a high-risk medication. Although the nonrandomized design precluded firmer conclusions, this study indicates that community-based medication reconciliation and review may be a promising strategy for reducing adverse events after discharge.
