The purpose of every pharmacist should be improving medication use and advancing patient care. Pharmacists will be the health care professionals responsible for providing patient care that ensures optimal medication therapy outcomes. The profession is moving toward a model that attempts to integrate patient-centered care with drug distribution services. Primary care is one of very important roles. In this symposium, we will discuss "Pharmaceutical knowledge required by pharmacists in community pharmacy". This symposium is composed of six presentations, "Approach to primary care in community pharmacy", "Antimicrobial stewardship in hospitals and the community", "Effects of lifestyle intervention performed by community pharmacists", "The role of an ambulatory care pharmacist in optimizing a direct oral anticoagulants", "Career choice attitudes attitude toward work among pharmacists working in community pharmacies in Japan" and "Cross-cultural interdisciplinary case study". The six-year pharmacy programme, focusing on practical pharmaceutical care, includes practical training on-site and was started in 2006 in Japan. The attitudes of the six-year pharmacy students toward career choice are unclear because the programme is relatively new. The objective of this symposium is that understand the necessity of a basic knowledge in the provision of primary care.
