Résumé
Professions exist to serve society. The mission of our profession must therefore, address the needs of society and individual patients. In this regard, the pharmacy profession has a responsibility to identify new opportunities for pharmacy practice in a changing health sector context, to assess and to test them, and to demonstrate the ability to implement them successfully. In addition, in the traditional relationship between the doctor as prescriber and the pharmacist as dispenser, the prescriber was accountable for the results of pharmacotherapy. This situation has changed in rapidly evolving health systems worldwide. The practice of pharmaceutical care now assumes the pharmacist to be responsible for patients under their care, and society will not only accept that assumption but hold the profession for it. These have informed the choice of the subject under review.
