Chemconsult® clearly demonstrates the value pharmacist advice adds to the dispensing process. Initial results in the trial period have been significant. In the first 7 months of operation in 20 pharmacies:

Over 10,000 Chemconsult® performed.
Averaging 80 Chemconsult® per month per store.
In approximately 1 in 4 consultations a pharmacist has made an intervention. This ranges from picking up minor dosing issues through to stopping significant drug interactions.
This equates to an average annual saving to the healthcare system of over $80,000 per Chemconsult® pharmacy and over 60 hospital bed stays avoided*
