Abstract
Medication therapy management (MTM) was first implemented and introduced for chronically ill patients and those taking multiple prescription drugs. The MTM has five steps, namely medication therapy review (MTR), personal medication record (PMR), medication-related action plan (MAP), intervention or referral, and finally, documentation. After receiving MTM services, patients will gain knowledge on medicines, which may decrease non-adherence to treatment and increase its efficacy. Studies have shown the positive impact of MTM on geriatric, pediatric, and chronically ill patients and those on polypharmacy. MTM services may improve medication adherence, decrease healthcare costs, and improve the quality of life (QoL) of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) by addressing various issues like anaemia, metabolic acidosis, protein management, fluid management, electrolyte management, dosage adjustment based on eGFR, vaccination, and medication-related problems and intervening with the education about the disease, drugs, and lifestyle modifications.
