Comprehensive Medication Review (CMR)

A Comprehensive Medication Review (CMR) is a thorough evaluation of all the medicines a person is taking, including prescriptions, over-the-counter drugs, and supplements. A healthcare professional reviews how the medicines work together, checks for potential side effects or interactions, and confirms they are still appropriate. The goal is to optimize medication use, improve health outcomes, and address any concerns or questions the individual may have. CMRs help ensure medications are safe, effective, and aligned with the person's health goals.
