Preface
Pharmacy practice which was traditionally product centered has now shifted towards patient care.
Pharmaceutical care, which is comprehensive and patient focussed is vital in ensuring that patients
receive rational, safe and effective treatment.
Medication Therapy Adherence Clinic (MTAC) was introduced in 2004 as part of the clinical
pharmacy services in the Ambulatory Clinic System which emphasizes on medication management
to improve on quality, safety and cost-effectiveness of patient care. MTAC is operated by
pharmacists who provide drug therapy monitoring and patients education in improving their ability
to successfully manage disease condition and preventing debilitating symptoms together with
reducing the likelihood of medication errors. The service also includes clinical pharmacokinetic
consultation, laboratory monitoring and dosage adjustment of relevant medications.
This protocol is meant for clinical pharmacists involved in the management of chronic obstructive
respiratory disease (COPD) and asthma as which comprises outlines on the activity and
documentations in handling MTAC Respiratory. The availability of this protocol will enable the
standardization of practice and expansion of MTAC Respiratory services throughout Ministry of
Health (MOH) facilities.
I would like to commend the Clinical Pharmacy Working Committee (Respiratory Subspecialty),
Pharmaceutical Services Division, MOH for their contribution and commitment to the publication of
this protocol.
Thank you
