BackgroundPrevious studies have shown that reducing drug-related problems (DRPs) may improve therapeutic outcomes in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD).AimTo investigate the impact of pharmacist participation in Parkinson's disease clinic on the number of DRPs, clinical outcomes, and the quality of life of PD patients.MethodThis single-blinded randomised controlled trial was conducted at the Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders Clinic. Patients aged ≥ 18 years, diagnosed with idiopathic PD for at least 3 years, and receiving antiparkinsonian drugs were randomly assigned (1:1) to the pharmacist-physician (PP) or usual care (UC) groups.

The mean number of DRPs reduced in both groups; however, the reduction was greater in the PP group compared to the UC group (- 7.2 ± 3.6 vs. - 3.0 ± 1.8, p ConclusionOur findings demonstrated that pharmacist-physician collaboration service in the PD clinic positively impacted patient outcomes.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov NCT05410210 (date 13 May 2022).
