Pharmacist intervention in patients receiving treatment for Chagas disease: An emerging challenge for non-endemic countries

This study was useful to provide more information about patients with Chagas disease, provide pharmacist intervention/information material to patients, and detect a point of improvement in hospital follow-up care. Although it was not possible to demonstrate it with a statistically significant result, we believe that pharmacist intervention that includes in-depth patient information about possible ADRs and their management could increase adherence and treatment completion rates. In addition, pharmacist intervention helped to better detect and control ADRs that could lead to generating better health outcomes in Chagas disease. Although our patients' health literacy was not evaluated, it would be a potential avenue for future research.
