Improving adherence to lipid-lowering therapy in a community pharmacy intervention program: a cost-effectiveness analysis.

CONCLUSION: Pharmaceutical care in community pharmacies can improve statin therapy adherence, resulting in better prevention of CVEs. The MeMO program resulted in considerable clinical benefits and net cost savings. Programs by community pharmacies targeted at improving adherence may provide good value for money, and health care insurers should consider reimbursing these activities.
