Abstract��OBJECTIVE To review the established tele-pharmacy service system,service pattern and standard based on modern telecommunications and information technologies and provide references for exploration and implementation of tele-pharmacy in China to deliver pharmaceutical care to patients at a distance. METHODS Literatures about tele-pharmacy practice in domestic and at abroad were retrieved. The development,service pattern,advantages and disadvantages and related application studies of tele-pharmacy were summarized and analyzed. RESULTS Tele-pharmacy is used to deal with how to obtain equivalent pharmaceutical care as traditional service pattern to underserved populations in the status of lacking pharmacists and poor access to pharmaceutical care. More and more countries have approved and conducted this pattern,and the impact and patient satisfaction have been confirmed. But limitations such as laws and technologies still exist. CONCLUSION Tele-pharmacy service could play an important role in balancing pharmacist resources and promoting rational drug use.
