There are always high expectations for a new year--and certainly we will have even higher expectations for a new century. To continue leadership in the 21st century, the American pharmaceutical industry must make a stronger commitment to new product research and development and the profession of pharmacy must commit to development of services needed for new, high-technology products and devices that will often be parenterally administered, bulky, nontraditional, patient-tailored, infrequently administered, and device-oriented. It is suggested that pharmacy must initiate efforts to include drug administration as a pharmaceutical service. Other actions are suggested to modify the curricula preparing pharmacists and to recruit a wider variety of students. A number of other professional initiatives are recommended and discussed to position pharmacy for enhanced clinical services. The issue of subperformance by pharmacists is discussed by pointing out that there is a significant difference in what often is, what should be, and what could be pharmacy service.
人们对新的一年总是寄予厚望——当然，我们对新世纪的期望会更高。为了在21世纪继续保持领先地位，美国制药行业必须更坚定地致力于新产品研发，而药学专业必须致力于开发新型高科技产品和设备所需的服务，这些产品和设备通常采用肠胃外给药方式，体积较大，非传统，针对患者定制，给药频率低，且以设备为导向。建议药学专业必须着手将药物给药纳入药学服务范畴。还建议采取其他行动来修改培养药剂师的课程，并招收更多样化的学生。为使药学专业能提供更好的临床服务，还推荐并讨论了一些其他专业举措。文中指出药剂师表现不佳的问题，即药学服务实际情况、应然情况和可能达到的情况之间存在显著差异。
