Abstract
The deontological duties of the pharmacist recommend advising customers on the correct use of medicines. In addition, they recommend giving the citizen up-to-date and complete information on drugs, understandable to the customer. These are the prerequisites for improving the effectiveness of doctor's prescriptions and counteract the inappropriate use of medicines. Recent scientific literature confirms the effectiveness of the pharmacist's interventions based on counseling for patients with chronic diseases. The article provides an account of some of the projects and studies on the role of the so-called "farmacia dei servizi" carried out in Italy in recent years.
