ForwardNatural Medicine Common Products - Kristi Kelley
Princeton Baptist Medical Center’s internal medicine resident clinic care for individuals who are at times on supplements, herbs, or plants to improve health, and to prevent and treat disease. The latter can be summed up as “natural medicine,” or using alternative treatments that are not of traditional evidence-based (allopathic) medicine. While it may not be everyday practice to see a patient on an alternative medication, some of the medications that will be discussed are commonly talked about and are “buzz words'' in the community. Natural medicine is not well understood and is of interest within the clinic. Given that many patients and healthcare workers have heard of some natural medicines, there is still a lack of understanding of how these medicines work for certain medical conditions. It is important for all members of a healthcare team to be familiar and feel confident in caring for patients who may be taking or may be interested in taking a natural medication to augment or supplement therapy.
The internal medicine resident clinic team consists of physicians, pharmacists, nurses, and social workers. Each member of the healthcare team works together to optimize the health and wellbeing of each patient. The purpose of this presentation includes educating the healthcare team on the most common natural medicines and supplements. The most common adverse effects, major drug interaction, and special populations will also be discussed for each product.
Each member of the team should be aware and educated on the most common supplements patient’s take or have questions on to appropriately treat each patient that may be on any natural medicine or have questions on initiating one.
