Medication management is a crucial aspect of healthcare that involves the precise monitoring and coordination of medications to ensure optimal treatment outcomes. It includes reviewing prescriptions, ensuring that medications are taken correctly, managing potential side effects, and preventing dangerous drug interactions. Proper medication management ensures that patients receive the maximum therapeutic benefit from their treatments while minimizing risks.
