Implementation of pharmaceutical care through professional pharmacy services is a complex process, in which multilevel implementation factors interact and affect implementation processes and outcomes. This process has traditionally been approached in an ad hoc manner, and assuming that positive benefits and diffusion of information through key stakeholders would ensure the service’s integration into routine practice. It is now known that this traditional approach is not sufficient to effectively integrate innovations into routine practice of pharmacy, and that more complex, tailored, and evidence-based approaches are needed. The application of implementation science to the implementation of professional pharmacy services will facilitate this complex process and will assist in ensuring their long-term sustainability.
