Abstract
From the very beginning, pharmacists have played important roles in health care management worldwide. Besides the pharmaceutical industry, hospital and clinical pharmacy dispensing systems can play an important role in prescription service, especially in low- and middle-income countries where the number of physicians is much less than the World Health Organization's recommendation according to population size. To date, besides physicians, many trained pharmacists in some developed countries are devoted to direct prescription services. People in a fragile health care system suffer a lot. It is due to their very limited healthcare professionals, low monetary backup, and inadequate healthcare institutions. This article cites examples of pharmacist prescribers from some countries around the world and sketches their promising role in the health sector, including the necessity of pharmacist prescribers in modern health care management. Additionally, the potential challenges for the implementation of pharmacist prescriptions have also been depicted in this paper.
