Abstract

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) cause around 74% of deaths in the world, two of which are caused by hypertension and diabetes, which are chronic diseases. In general, it is characterized by high morbidity, polypharmacy and long-term treatment. This causes poor treatment compliance in the majority of respondents and has an impact on increasing disease complications, morbidity, mortality and treatment costs. Pharmacist intervention in managing NCDs has developed through a systematic, comprehensive medication management model approach such as the Medication Therapy Management (MTM) approach. This MTM model is designed to improve clinical outcomes from therapy, increase appropriate drug use, resolve treatment-related problems, improve respondents' quality of life and can provide good efficiency in avoiding risk factors for disease complications. This review was prepared to serve as comprehensive reference material regarding PTM. The method used is collecting scientific articles from national and international sources. The results obtained show that the MTM approach is an excellent pharmacist practice model in providing comprehensive pharmaceutical services for NCDs, especially hypertension and diabetes. The interventions that pharmacists can provide are comprehensive counseling by evaluating clinical results, compliance, knowledge, quality of life, perception of illness.

Abstract

Hypertension is defined by persistently elevated arterial blood pressure. The Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee (JNC VII) on Detection, Evalution, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure explains that hypertension is a condition where there is an increase in blood pressure in the arteries above 140/90 mmHg. The general goal of hypertension treatment is to reduce mortality and morbidity associated with hypertension. Mortality and morbidity are related to target organ damage. Reducing risk is the main goal of hypertension therapy, and the choice of drug therapy is significantly influenced by evidence showing risk reduction. The target blood pressure value recommended in JNC VII for most patients is < 140/90 mm Hg, patients with diabetes < 130/80 mm Hg and patients with chronic kidney disease < 130/80 mm Hg. One part of the therapeutic management of hypertensive patients to achieve therapeutic goals is through pharmaceutical care (Pharmaceutical care). Counseling as an implementation of the concept of pharmaceutical care (pharmaceutical care) aims to provide additional knowledge about drugs and treatment with the hope of providing patients with an understanding of the role of drugs in curing their disease. This review summarizes the results of research on the effect of pharmacist intervention on achieving blood pressure targets for hypertensive patients by searching international and national published scientific journals from the last year 2010- 2021 via electronic databases in the form of Pubmed, ScienceDirect and Google Scholar.
