Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Pharmacists have an important role to play in the quality use of medicines by advising on the selection of medicines and dosing, safe handling, storage and use, minimising harm from medications and monitoring outcomes. Knowledge of pharmacokinetics and pharmaceutics are unique skills that pharmacists bring to the health care team. Pharmacists may also be involved in clinical trials, laboratory-based studies developing new drugs, repurposing existing drugs or describing the pharmacokinetics of drugs, investigating the stability and compatibility of drug formulations and admixtures for clinical use or the use of technology to improve medication safety.
The aim of this Special Issue is to provide a platform for pharmacists to share their innovations, experiences, reviews and research and promote the discussion of topics relating to improving and informing medication use in different clinical settings.
Dr. Jennifer Schneider
Guest Editor
