Abstract

Currently, in every country, community pharmacists play an essential role as they take responsibility for access to healthcare for the medicine-related needs of patients. In India, however, only the provision of medicines remains the central movement of the group pharmacist. In the country, patient-oriented treatment is still rarely given by most community pharmacists. As domestic medicine development and national healthcare expenditure rise rapidly, the role of pharmacists in society and, with it, their management of medicines will change. The aim of this editorial is to examine the genesis of the private-owned Indian community pharmacy and to outline its education, training and prospects.
