T2  - Medication Therapy Management: A Comprehensive Approach
AB  - Unlike  asthma,  the  airflow  limitation  caused  by  chronic  obstructive  pulmonary  disease  (COPD)  is  not  fully  reversible.The  single  most  important  intervention  for  prevention  and  treatment  of  COPD  is  smoking  cessation.  Medication  therapy  management  providers  should  work  with  patients  to  incorporate  a  strategy  for  smoking  cessation  into  the  medication  action  plan.Adherence  to  pharmacotherapy  is  key  in  reaching  treatment  goals,  and  guidelines  for  COPD  emphasize  the  importance  of  routine  assessment  and  discussion  of  the  therapeutic  regimen  with  patients.  Through  provision  of  medication  therapy  management,  MTM  providers  can  assist  patients  as  well  as  other  providers  in  improving  treatment  and  achieving  therapeutic  goals.
