[World Liver Day 2024] "Be Vigilant, Get Regular Liver Check-Ups and Prevent Fatty Liver Diseases.” That’s the theme of World Liver Day this year which is held annually today, 19 April. This day is observed to increase awareness about the importance of liver health and to prevent liver diseases. Pharmacists play an essential role in educating the public about liver health and providing guidance on medications (e.g. potential adverse effects of certain medications on the liver), alcohol consumption avoidance, as well as lifestyle modifications to maintain a healthy liver. Typically clinical, outpatient and community pharmacists possess a significant advantage in early education due to their easy accessibility to the public (patients) and availability in community pharmacies. MPS recognises the crucial role of pharmacists as key educators in liver health. Their expertise helps individuals make informed decisions, potentially leading to early detection and prevention of fatty liver diseases.
