The Impact of Clinical Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Care on the Quality of Drug Therapy

In both developed and developing countries, the emphasis on the quality of health care services has been constantly increasing. The number of health care providers has thus increased. However, the notion of the quality of health care services implies both costs and quality metrics. As drug-related problems are constantly present, efforts to increase the efficiency and decrease the costs of drug therapy have been the most attractive part of health policies. Problems encountered during pharmacotherapy have led to the implementation of the concept of pharmaceutical care in health care policies. Although the need for the concept of pharmaceutical care and clinical pharmacy is not the same, the two subjects are closely related to each other. Methods Several methods were used to collect and analyze the data from this study. The definitions and rationale of the concepts may be repeated here for a better understanding of the readers. During a three-month period, clinical pharmacy was practiced on the medical and pediatric wards in the previously described way. It was the first experience of practicing clinical pharmacy at this hospital. The main results obtained by the clinical pharmacists were registered, and these data were used to verify the quality of the delivered pharmaceutical care. Some of the results, more specifically those concerning hospital-acquired infections, were used to confirm the hypothesis that clinical pharmacists could contribute to lowering the costs of hospital care and treatment. Conclusion As a clinical discipline, pharmacy offers a full range of knowledge and skills that promotes optimal pharmacotherapy in the practice of medicine, and the pharmaceutical care model of pharmacotherapy management has attracted the attention of clinical pharmacists. Pharmacy can offer favorable medication service only by pharmaceutical preparation before, during, and after drug therapy. All should be committed to establishing and improving the pharmaceutical care model. In the process of compromising with disease and medication, pharmaceutical care enlightens traditional outpatient dispensing into an outpatient dispensing mode with services, and also surpasses simple dispensing work to a series of new levels. Such progress not only directly impacts the service capacity of public pharmacies but also has an advanced effect on the construction of the department of pharmacy in secondary hospitals and major hospitals in urban areas, and has an indirect effect on the effect of traditional hospital medication service models. In particular, it opens up an innovative thinking path for the development model of in-hospital pharmacies and also advances the contemporary development professionalization of clinical pharmacists. Because of the new opportunities in the new century and the rapid development of China’s health service industry, the five levels of pharmacy explore the way of external oriented management and the way of being incorporated into the in-hospital logistical service system, becoming one of the features of urban hospital pharmaceutical services as well. The rapid production has not gone through a strict selection process, or is particularly prominent in the prevention, control, and use of counterfeit and shoddy medicines. Prescriptions were significantly different, and the greater the number of drugs prescribed during a hospitalization, the higher the possibility the quality deterioration degree of the prescriptions. The medications prescribed in the Department of Emergency are more irrational compared with those prescribed in other specialized departments. It is now a major pharmacy service area with broad development prospects. However, this also brings about severe security concerns. The situation of tertiary hospitals has improved and the status at secondary hospitals has risen somewhat; however, the inadequacies in the overall service capacity and levels still exist. It generally falls into the service position hierarchy of the logistics center, which is mainly reflected as the department of preparation. Such a dispensing pattern has benefits for the patient and can make the outpatient department compassionate contact with patients.
