摘要
The clinical pharmacist's part is emerging as a key extension to the human services care team bringing about enhanced patient care in the world. The main objective of this article is to highlight the role of clinical pharmacist in an oncology setting of Nepal. An enrollment of clinical pharmacist in an oncology hospital or in oncology settings can work as a bridge between medical oncologist and patients.
