In It for the Long Haul: Post-Acute Sequelae of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused immeasurable clinical, economic, and societal challenges for the world since early 2020. Intense focus has been placed on determining evidence-based acute management of patients infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus, as well as accelerating vaccination efforts for those eligible to receive it. As patients recover from infection, many are left with long-term symptoms, known as "Long COVID" or "Post-Acute Sequelae of COVID19," that challenges the ability to fully recover, return to baseline health status, and regain quality of life. As the most accessible healthcare professional, pharmacists can assist with the management of long COVID as a member of the multidisciplinary team. Pharmacists' medication acumen is beneficial to the management of long COVID symptomatology as more research comes to the forefront of this deadly disease.
