A study published in the Journal of the American Pharmacists Association (JAPhA) presents the most recent results from The Asheville Project – a community-based, pharmacist-directed, medication therapy management (MTM) program provided for several employers in the Asheville, N.C. area. In this study, more than 600 individuals being treated for hypertension and dyslipidemia, and receiving education and long-term MTM services from a pharmacist, achieved significant clinical and economic improvements that were sustained for as long as six years.
