Abstract
Since its inception, the Clinical Pharmacology Section of the British Pharmacological Society has been discussing the wider role and responsibility of the clinical pharmacologist beyond the university department, in the district general hospital. The following policy statement is the product of these discussions, and is published in this international journal because, although the organization of the health service and its hospitals is peculiar to the United Kingdom, the concept of a clinical pharmacology service in general hospitals has far‐ reaching implications. The Editorial Board hopes that its publication will lead to recognition of the part that a general physician with a special interest in clinical pharmacology can play in patient care.
