                Extensive definition: 
                Clinical pharmacy is an area of pharmacy aimed at developing and promoting an 
                appropriate, safe and cost-effective use of therapeutic products. 
                In the hospital setting, clinical pharmacy includes direct patient oriented pharmaceutical 
                activities, developed on patient care wards in collaboration with other healthcare 
                professionals. The pharmacist must demonstrate competencies in the corresponding 
                specialties of the service (pediatrics, neurology, ICU, etc) or of the area (pain management, 
                diabetes, infectious diseases, etc). He or she is part of a multidisciplinary team, is present on 
                the ward on a daily basis or as a regular consultant for the different services.  
                Clinical pharmacists have a dedicated training program in this field and assume the 
                responsibility of their interventions. 
                The activities of clinical pharmacy are organized along three axes. 
                 
                 1) Patient-related axis: To collaborate in patient education and continuity of care. 
                 • Medication history; 
                 • Therapeutic adherence; 
                 • Transition to the ambulatory setting and education on discharge medication. 
                 
                 2) Treatment-related axis: Analysis of drug therapy to optimize and reduce over-, under- 
                and misuse of medicines, taking into account the aspects mentioned under 1. 
                 • Choice of medication including a risk/benefit analysis (including drug interactions and 
                predictable side effects) and cost/effectiveness; 
                 • Indications and completeness of treatment; 
                 • Contraindications according to the pathophysiological state; 
                 • Adaptation and individualization of treatment.

                 3) Processes-related axis: To consolidate the drug supply chain to ensure that the patient 
                receives the right medication at the right time as prescribed. 
                 • Support of good prescribing practices, 
                 • Development of guidelines on the preparation and administration of medication; 
                 • Development of treatment guidelines in collaboration with medical and nursing teams in 
                the departments involved; 
                 • Development of computerized decision support systems for the prescription and 
                administration of drugs; 
                 • Prevention and documentation of adverse drug events on the ward. 
                 
                 
                  These three axes should be completed with following related activities which are an 
                integral part of the role of the clinical pharmacist: 
                 • Contribution in continuing education of physicians, nurses and pharmacists; 
                 • Research and development.
