Developing trends of Pharmacy Practice and its challenges.
Patient care in a community is becoming critical due to change in the impact of diseases on health.
The provision of pharmaceutical care in a community will bring in positive changes in health care
delivery. However, the pharmacist in developing countries has remained obscure in direct healthcare of the patient. The main aim of this article is to reinforce the concept that there is a need to
strengthen the basic pharmaceutical system in the developing world before implementing
any advanced clinical pharmacy or pharmaceutical care services to our communities. This paragraph
gives a good insight of where pharmacy practice in developing countries
globally stand in comparison to developed nations. A trend is apparent towards increased emphasis on clinical pharmacy practice. Country-specific pharmacy education and practice are discussed,
analyzing the progress and opportunities available to pharmacy graduates. In addition, the future
of pharmacy practice and clinical roles of hospital and community pharmacists were reviewed. It
was realized that pharmacy practice and progress in many of the developing countries was
a mirror image of the status of the country itself. A new vision for the future of pharmacy practice
needs to be considered and reorientation of pharmacy services in the existing system is needed.
There should be a professional approach to speed up the rise towards practicing clinical pharmacy
and pharmaceutical profession. This is achieved by interviewing patients, documenting their
health details and educating them on methods of improving their health, including proper medicationcation usage and lifestyle modification. Furthermore, colleges of pharmacy need to revise and update their curricula to accommodate the progressively increasing development in the pharmaceutical education and the evolving new roles of practicing pharmacists in their community.

A Pharmacy should always have a Pharmacist 24/7 on the prescription counter , who can guide and counsel the patients and also do prescription intervention if required , because a previously prescribed medicine can be very harmful if administered again and again blindly. This act will not only benefit the healthcare system but also increase the trust and value of a Pharmacist in the community.
