as Mental Health Care Providers: A Comprehensive Review Pharmacists, traditionally recognized for their role in medication dispensing and drug information, are increasingly assuming a pivotal role in mental health care. Their unique position within the healthcare system allows them to contribute significantly to patient care by providing essential services such as medication management, patient education and counseling, screening and identification of mental health conditions, and collaboration with healthcare providers. This review explores the multifaceted role of pharmacists in mental health, highlighting their potential to improve patient outcomes. By addressing medication adherence, identifying and managing adverse effects, and providing comprehensive patient education, pharmacists can optimize treatment regimens and enhance patient quality of life. Additionally, their ability to screen for mental health conditions and refer patients to appropriate care can contribute to early intervention and improved mental health outcomes. As the demand for mental health services continues to rise, the role of pharmacists in this domain is poised to expand. By embracing their expanded role and collaborating with other healthcare professionals, pharmacists can make a substantial impact on the mental health landscape.
