Pharmaceutical dispensing is the process of preparing and providing medications to patients based on prescriptions from healthcare providers. This involves accurately measuring, packaging, and labeling medications to ensure they are safe and effective for the patient’s specific needs. Pharmacists play a crucial role in this process, as they verify prescriptions, check for potential drug interactions, and provide important information about how to take the medication. Proper dispensing helps ensure that patients receive the correct dosage and understand how to use their medications safely.
