Description
BackgroundChina's transition toward people-centered health governance has highlighted the essential role of pharmacists in ensuring rational medication use and protecting public health. However, pharmacists' professional roles remain fragmented across institutional, social, and regulatory dimensions. Drawing on public value theory, this study examines the structural and cognitive misalignments constraining pharmacist professionalisation in China and situates these challenges within an international context.
