The implications of changing patterns of acute respiratory infections for self-care behaviours, vaccination perceptions and pharmacy practice are highlighted in a new FIP insight board report published today. The report explores the contribution community pharmacists can make beyond medicine supply by supporting prevention, vaccination, informed self-care, early
detection and antimicrobial stewardship.
The report also identifies priorities for strengthening pharmacists’ preparedness, including continuing professional development, practical clinical guidance, access to diagnostic tools and closer integration with other health professionals. It calls for coordinated action to embed pharmacy more systematically in respiratory infection care, strengthen public health surveillance and establish sustainable frameworks for pharmacy-based services.
