The impact on the care of breast cancer patients, of a pharmacy technician-led medication review and counselling clinic, provided in an outpatient setting, was investigated using a controlled randomised study. Compared to the controls, clinic patients showed a significantly improved level of understanding of their chemotherapy support medication (95% CI for difference in mean knowledge rating scores=2.165-2.826, P&lt;0.001) and a significant reduction in the median number of support items required (two compared to five in the control, P&lt;0.001). This resulted in a significant reduction in mean medication expenditure per patient (26.70 vs 10.20 British Pound, 95% CI for the mean difference in cost 6.72 - 26.26 British Pound, P&lt;0.001). The clinic was also associated with significant reductions in chemotherapy delays (P&lt;0.001) and dose reductions due to side effects (P=0.003). Other benefits from the clinic were a reduction in pharmacy dispensing time and a highly significant reduction in pharmacy time spent resolving post-clinic prescription queries (P&lt;0.001). Taking into account the initial technician training cost, the scheme represented an annual saving to the Trust of over 15,000 British Pound. The clinic serves as a model for those wishing to improve outpatient services to breast cancer patients.
