Sinopsis
Patients who are obese or overweight are at an increased risk of many serious conditions, such as type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease. Pharmacy teams should be having regular discussions with patients about losing weight, but how often do you have impactful conversations around this topic? C+D clinical editor Kristoffer Stewart spoke to Ms Hathi, pharmacist at Well Pharmacy in Kingsbury, London to discuss: · how she thinks pharmacists should approach patients about weight loss · how to overcome barriers to counselling patients about obesity · what options are available to patients who are struggling to manage their weight.
