AI-Enabled Pharmacy Practice: Medication Safety, Workflow Efficiency, and Clinical Oversight

AI is already changing pharmacy practice through medication alerts, clinical decision support, documentation, patient education, prescription verification, and generative AI tools. While these tools may improve efficiency and support medication safety, they also introduce risks such as inaccurate outputs, privacy concerns, bias, and overreliance on unvalidated recommendations.

This session will help pharmacy professionals understand where AI can add value, where it creates risk, and how to use it responsibly. Attendees will leave with practical strategies to evaluate AI outputs, protect patient safety, and maintain pharmacist oversight in AI-supported workflows.
