Black patients and Clinical Pharmacist

Black clinical pharmacists (PharmD): medication therapy, diabetes coaching, anticoagulation. Your most accessible medication expert.

Clinical pharmacists (PharmDs) are often the most accessible healthcare provider, frequently walk-in, evenings, and weekends, and they specialize in medication therapy management. For Black patients with hypertension, diabetes, or heart failure (conditions with documented disparities), a clinical pharmacist can review your medications, flag interactions, adjust doses collaboratively with your physician, and coach on proper use of inhalers, insulin pens, and CGMs. Only about 6 percent of U.S. pharmacists are Black (APhA, 2023).

What clinical pharmacists cover

  • Medication therapy management (MTM)
  • Diabetes coaching, including insulin and GLP-1 starts
  • Blood pressure coaching and at-home monitoring
