What is pharmaceutical service?

Pharmaceutical care requires pharmaceutical personnel to use their professional knowledge and technology to ensure that patients get satisfactory drug treatment results and reduce the total medical expenses as much as possible. It not only needs suitable workplace and tools and the support of information technology, but also requires pharmaceutical personnel to have good academic qualifications, extensive knowledge, superb communication skills and rich practical experience. In terms of training, in addition to the knowledge of pharmacy, more and more comprehensive medical professional knowledge should be added. Pharmacists should provide safe treatment drugs. First of all, the drugs required to be provided are qualified and of high quality, not only the internal quality, but also the outer packaging. This requires that drugs must be purchased in strict accordance with the requirements of laws and regulations and obtained from legal channels; There should be a suitable storage environment in the process of drug storage to reduce drug deterioration; When providing it to patients, it should be ensured that the drug is in a safe period of validity during taking the therapeutic drug. On the other hand, pharmaceutical personnel should have a clear understanding and grasp of the possible adverse reactions of the drugs provided, especially the serious adverse reactions of the drugs. On this basis, pharmacists should explain the correct usage of drugs and possible adverse reactions, especially serious adverse reactions, to patients in detail, so as to avoid possible harm to human body caused by adverse drug reactions. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen the monitoring of adverse drug reactions and find any possible adverse reactions. Pharmacists should provide effective treatment drugs. Pharmacists are required to fully understand the indications, action principles, action pathways, action characteristics, action intensity, use methods, compatibility contraindications, adverse reactions and other properties of the drugs provided. On the other hand, pharmaceutical personnel are required to receive medical knowledge training and master certain clinical medical knowledge. Pharmacists in outpatient or pharmacy should have a brief understanding of patients' symptoms, be good at finding unreasonable drugs in doctors' prescriptions and put forward suggestions for improvement; Clinical pharmacists should be able to provide doctors with comprehensive drug information and medication plans to help doctors use drugs correctly and rationally. Pharmacists are also required to actively go deep into the clinic, carry out therapeutic drug monitoring, carry out prescription analysis, and carry out research on new preparations and new dosage forms. Pharmacists should provide economical treatment drugs. Due to the lag in the reform of medical care, medicine and medical insurance system, excessive medical expenses have brought huge economic burden to individuals, countries and society. On the one hand, health resources are seriously inadequate; On the other hand, health resources are seriously wasted. This requires pharmacists to master the methods and steps of pharmacoeconomics research and have the ability to comprehensively analyze all alternative treatment schemes (including drug treatment and non-drug treatment) from the aspects of minimum cost, cost-effectiveness, cost-effectiveness and so on, so as to provide patients with disease treatment schemes that are both economical and can improve their quality of life. In this way, the total cost of disease treatment can be greatly reduced, and the health resources of the whole society can be effectively and reasonably distributed and utilized. Pharmacists should provide drugs in a legal way. Due to the complexity and limitations of disease treatment, there are high risks in the medical and pharmaceutical industry, and the means and procedures for pharmaceutical personnel to provide drugs should be legal. This can put an end to possible medical accidents and disputes to a great extent, and greatly improve the level of medical services and pharmaceutical services. Pharmaceutical personnel are required to establish a set of practical, efficient, reasonable and legal management system and operation norms, which run through the whole process of drug procurement, storage and deployment.
