Pharmacist performs a medication regimen review (MRR) for every resident in the facility receiving
medication. 2. Medication regimen reviews are done at least monthly, or more frequently if indicated. 3. The
goal of the MMR is to promote positive outcomes while minimizing adverse consequences and potential
risks associated with medication. 4. The MRR involves a thorough review of the resident's medical record to
prevent, identify, report, and resolve medication related problems, medication errors and other irregularities,
for example: medications a. ordered in excessive doses or without clinical indication; b. medication
regimens that appear inconsistent with the resident's stated preferences; c. duplicative therapies or
omissions of ordered medication; d. inadequate monitoring for adverse consequences; e. potentially
significant drug-drug or drug-food interactions; f. potentially significant medication-related adverse
consequences or actual signs and symptoms that could represent adverse consequences; g. incorrect
medications, administration times or dosage forms; or other h. medication errors, including those related to
documentation. 5. The medication regimen and associated treatment goals involve collaboration with the
resident (or representative), family members, and the interdisciplinary team (IDT). As such, the MRR
includes a review of the resident's (or representative's) stated preferences, the comprehensive care plans
and information provided about the risks and benefits of the medication regimen. In addition to reviewing
the medical record the Consultant Pharmacist may also meet with staff, the resident or representatives, or
the IDT. 7. Within 24 hours of the MRR, the Consultant Pharmacist provides a written report to the attending
physicians for each resident identified as having a non-life-threatening medication irregularity. The report
contains: a. The resident's name; b. the name of the medication; c. the identified irregularity; and e. the
pharmacist's recommendation. 8. An irregularity refers to the use of medication that is inconsistent with
accepted pharmaceutical services standards or practice; is not supported by medical evidence; and/or
impedes or interferes with achieving the intended outcomes of pharmaceutical services. It may also include
the use of medication without indication, without adequate monitoring, in excessive doses, and or in the
presence of adverse consequences. 10. If the physician does not provide a timely or adequate response,
the Consultant Pharmacist identifies that no action has been taken, he/she contacts the Medical Director or
(if the Medical Director is the physician of record) the Administrator. 11. The attending physician documents
in the medical record that the irregularity has been reviewed and what (if any) action was taken to address
it. 12. An acute change of condition may prompt a request for a MRR. The staff member who identifies the
change of condition follows reporting procedures to notify the physician. The physician may request a MRR
be conducted within a specific timeframe (e.g. within 24 hours).
