Many opine that the presence of pharmacists in pharmacies is merely to satisfy the current legal requirements. They only count and pack tablets and capsules and distributes these to consumers. There is need to adopt new concepts of clinical patient oriented practices. There is requirement to make medicines safe for patients by providing counselling than for proper use, clarifying correct dosages and right application. It involves checking new treatments that are compatible with other medicines that the patients might be taking. The future of pharmacy does not seem to lie merely in dispensing of medication batter in provision of relevant drug information and drug therapy recommendation to patients. A clinical pharmacist is an important source for furnishing clinical aspects of the drugs and delivery system particularly with respect to the safety and efficacy parameters.
