Summary:
A key area within which pharmacists and pharmacy at large can have a real positive impact is that of substance misuse, with this taking the form of more straightforward activities such as the provision of advice and support, through to more complex initiatives which centre on the provision of substitute substances, needle exchange, and more.

In this episode of PharmaCast, Dr Dan Corbett from the School of Pharmacy at Queen's University Belfast is joined by Johanne Barry (also from the School of Pharmacy), and Dr Denis O'Driscoll, Superintendent Pharmacist at LloydsPharmacy Ireland, to explore the topic of substance misuse, and the role which pharmacy can play in helping those affected by this issue.
