Conclusion
To sum up, pharmacists in hospital pharmacy services are still of great
significance, even when the emphasis on strengthening professional
education of pharmacists[46] and the level of global pharmacy
education is still uneven[47]. Pharmacy services provided by
pharmacists are free of charge in most areas [48], but they can also
help doctors check the rationality of prescriptions, provide patients
with guidance on the use of drugs, and optimize drug use plans to ensure
the safety of patients’ medication and improve the effectiveness of drug
treatment, reducing the cost of medication for patients, and even early
warning of diseases[49] or other undetectable effects. Therefore,
while we support pharmacists to further deepen their participation in
medication, we also support certain financial encouragement to
pharmacists. It cannot be ignored that although many randomized clinical
trials are used as examples of clinical pharmacy service value in the
article, there are no completely scientific and unified standards for
pharmacist intervention programs, evaluation methods, and quantitative
indicators, so they need more systematic design and investigation.
Moreover, due to the uncontrollable individual differences in the trial,
such as physical specificity, cultural awareness and so on, it is not
known whether the power of the results produced by pharmacist
intervention is large enough. Thus, there is an urgent need for more and
more comprehensive clinical studies to verify the role of pharmacists
more strongly in hospital pharmaceutical care.
