Pharmacist prescriber in Italy and possible changes to current legislation: <i>survey</i> of attitudes among pharmacists, family doctors and users
This study highlights the fact that both pharmacists and pharmacy users tend to be favourable to the introduction of the figure of the pharmacist prescriber in Italy. Many obstacles remain to be overcome but, based on the procedures already experimented in other European countries and worldwide, a route leading to the introduction of the pharmacy prescriber role may be hypothesised.
