Pharmacists also contribute to pharmacovigilance by monitoring outcomes and reporting adverse events.

Education and regulation: Pharmacists generally hold a university degree in pharmacy and must obtain professional licensure. They are trained in pharmacology, therapeutics, patient communication, and ethical practice. Regulatory bodies oversee pharmacy practice to ensure medicine quality, safety, and appropriate use of medications.

Settings and approach: Collaboration with farmatseutidega occurs in community pharmacies, hospitals, clinics, and during public health campaigns. Interdisciplinary teams depend on pharmacists to support medication-related decisions, optimize therapy, and enhance patient outcomes. Effective cooperation emphasizes clear communication, accessibility of reliable drug information, and respect for patient autonomy and privacy.
