Clinical pharmacologists are active in the delivery of general and specialist medical services across the UK. They also make major contributions, both locally and nationally, to medicines management and appraisal in the National Health Service. Most are also heavily involved in the organization and delivery of teaching and training of a range of healthcare professionals, both undergraduates and postgraduates. In the past, these contributions may not have been fully recognized, perhaps in part because the discipline is small. However, the British Pharmacological Society, particularly through its Clinical Section, is committed to initiatives to ensure that all clinical pharmacologists (whatever their background, training or subsequent working environment) can work together to improve patient care, nationally and internationally. Effective engagement with universities, the National Health Service and pharmaceutical companies will be vital if these initiatives are to have sustained benefits and improve health outcomes for patients.
临床药理学家积极参与在英国各地提供普通和专科医疗服务。他们还在地方和国家层面上，为国民医疗服务体系中的药物管理和评估做出了重大贡献。大多数临床药理学家还深度参与了一系列医疗保健专业人员（包括本科生和研究生）的教学和培训的组织与实施工作。过去，这些贡献可能没有得到充分认可，部分原因可能是该学科规模较小。然而，英国药理学会，特别是通过其临床分会，致力于采取举措，以确保所有临床药理学家（无论其背景、培训经历或后续工作环境如何）能够共同努力，在国内和国际上改善患者护理。如果这些举措要产生持续效益并改善患者的健康结果，与大学、国民医疗服务体系和制药公司进行有效的互动将至关重要。
