In the health care system, pharmaceutical care systems are one of the core components and pharmacists play a very important role. With the dynamic changes that occur in health services, diseases, communication and regulatory information technology, the roles and responsibilities of pharmacists are becoming increasingly important than before. Pharmacists are dedicated and in a strategic position to maintain and advance public health. Their efforts improve the quality of life of individuals by helping people to live as freely as possible from illness, pain, and suffering. One of the obligations of pharmacists is to educate the public about health and drug use. Pharmacy practices involve pharmacists, patients, other professional health personnel and the public can be conceptualized as a social process. Therefore, understanding the concepts and principles behind social pharmacy disciplines is very essential and useful for a pharmacist and pharmacy student. The purpose of this article review is to briefly review a number of important topics concerning social, behavioral and administrative aspects in pharmacy to achieve a stronger understanding of dynamic and complex interactions between patients, pharmacists, drugs, teams of health workers, organizations and larger social systems. Mastery of students and pharmacists on this issue – asa consequence of the inclusion of social and administrative aspects into the pharmacy's higher education curriculum–willenable them to be professionally responsible for improving patient drug therapy outcomes as individuals, communities, society, and state systems; and have a greater impact on population health through drug-related public policies.

Theories of most relevance to pharmacy are drawn from disciplines including: sociology; psychology; anthropology; and biomedical sciences [2].…”

All researchers should consider the theoretical basis for their studies very early on in the planning stage. The aim of this paper is to describe and discuss how theory (a 'comprehensive explanation of some aspect of nature that is supported by a body of evidence') can inform and improve the quality and relevance of pharmacy-based research. Theories can be applied at many stages of quantitative and qualitative (and mixed) research processes, including: providing rationale for the study; defining the aim and research questions; considering the methodological stance; developing data collection and generation tools; providing a framework for data analysis, and interpretation. The focus of the paper is on the use of theoretical lenses, their selection and application. Two key theoretical lenses and their potential applications are described: the Theoretical Domains Framework in studies of behavioural change, and Normalization Process Theory in implementing, embedding and integrating interventions.

Advancing Pharmacy Practice Through Social Theory

Abstract: IntroductionPharmacy does not appear to be a profession that sits comfortably upon a theoretical foundation. There are a number of practice models described in the literature but these are largely descriptions of what pharmacists do.
