Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Pharmacy Intervention Arm
All patients receiving statins from pharmacies allocated to the pharmacist intervention arm of the study
CPATCH intervention to support statin adherence
Routine identification of new statin users (first year of therapy), consistent assessment of barriers to adherence at every dispensation for these patients, reassurance about efficacy and safety, and proactive response to identified adherence barriers.
Usual Care
Pharmacies not allocated to the intervention arm will serve as the control. They received no training on the CPATCH intervention and provide usual care to patients at their pharmacy.
No interventions assigned to this group
