  • 摘要:This study aims to reveal the patients’ experiences with a comprehensive medication management (CMM) service delivered in a specialty pharmacy in Brazil. This is a qualitative study performed from September 2015 to February 2016. In-depth semi-structured interviews were conducted with 10 patients followed-up in a CMM service in a specialty pharmacy located in Minas Gerais state. The interviews were recorded, transcribed and analyzed with the assistance of the NVivo11 software. According to the participants, they did not know what to expect from CMM at first. They showed difficulties on establishing a solid concept for CMM, however, they pointed some key aspects of pharmaceutical care philosophy based on their experience with the service. The interviewees identified the CMM pharmacist, seen as a care professional, as a different professional compared to the traditional pharmacist, mainly identified by them as a salesman. The ability to listen and the time that the CMM professional dedicated in the consultations were highlighted as primordial in the process of building a therapeutic relationship with the patient. The difficulties the patients have for establishing a solid concept for CMM might be due to the lack of pharmacists exerting this function, considering CMM is still a new service in Brazil. The results of this work can guide efforts to build a better interaction between patients and pharmacists, in a constant search for offering the best care possible.
