Pharmaceutics and Clinical Pharmacokinetics

Dear Colleagues,

Pharmacists are the only health professionals who receive extensive training in pharmaceutics, compounding, formulation and clinical pharmacokinetics. This training enables pharmacists to provide a unique contribution to multidisciplinary health care teams. These specialised skills underpin research which spans many different facets of healthcare, including optimal use of medicines, exploring stability and compatibility of drugs and drug combinations, personalising doses through therapeutic drug monitoring and innovations in drug delivery systems. 

To highlight the unique work done by pharmacists in both the clinical setting and the research laboratory, you are invited to share clinical practices or new models of care that you have developed, reviews which will help to inform other pharmacists and to report the outcomes of your research. An important objective of this Special Issue is to help to raise awareness of the valuable contribution to healthcare that pharmacists make.
