A Swiss Interprofessional Network for Reviewing Inappropriate Medication in Primary Care

Enrolling by invitation · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Medication Review, Primary Care

In brief

The aim of the SINERGIC pilot study is to assess the feasibility in the Swiss context of implementing interprofessional medication reviews between GP and pharmacists, as part of a shared decision-making process with patients. The acceptability and potential effectiveness of such an intervention will also be assessed. This assessment will enable the investigators to take into account the determining factors for setting up a large-scale study to support the sustainable financing of this service in the long term.
