This 1 hour accredited program will help pharmacists review best-practice management of medicines used in the management of PsA and will help you identify patients who may require re-assessment by their prescriber. Recognising when PsA is sub-optimally controlled and identifying patients who require prompt referral to a rheumatologist for escalation of treatment (including newer oral agents) will help control disease and help prevent progressive joint damage.
