Information skills and critical evaluation
As a science-based profession, pharmacy practice relies on knowledge underpinned by high-quality research and an evidence base that is constantly evolving. Developing the ability to integrate the best available evidence with clinical expertise will ensure pharmacists answer medicines-related questions in the best way possible and enables the delivery of evidence-based practice.
This collection of articles has been developed from the book Drug Information and Literature Evaluation, formerly published by Pharmaceutical Press. It examines key drug information and literature–evaluation principles, as well as provides a step-by-step guide to evaluating clinical research studies.
New articles in the series will be published each week, so check this page regularly for the latest content.
