Abstract

Clinical pharmacy has become one of the newest and least understood branches of pharmacy in the twenty-first century, despite the fact that no system can be guaranteed to be of high quality without sufficient oversight. Clinical pharmacists participating in medical rounds could assist doctors in optimising drug treatment. This new career in India includes solid manufacturing procedures, the acquisition, preparation, and distribution of medications, the reporting of ADRs and ADEs, and overall, a very promising facet of patient healthcare. In India, clinical pharmacy is in a stage of revolution and has seen significant, positive, and promising changes in recent years. Although still in its infancy, hospitals have begun to recognise the value of clinical pharmacy and have taken steps to make it possible. In terms of patient care services, the clinical pharmacy sector of pharmacy is unquestionably reaching new heights, which has undoubtedly improved patient services and satisfaction.
