ABSTRACT

The integration of Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) in pharmacy is transforming education, patient engagement and medication management. VR provides immersive simulations for pharmacy students, enhancing their understanding of complex concepts, drug interactions, and patient scenarios. This experiential learning approach fosters critical thinking and clinical skills. AR, on the other hand, offers real-time, interactive overlays of information, assisting pharmacists in visualizing medication data and patient history, thus improving accuracy in dispensing medications. Both technologies enhance patient education by allowing patients to visualize treatment effects and medication administration procedures. The potential for VR and AR to streamline workflows, reduce errors, and improve patient outcomes makes them invaluable tools in modern pharmacy practice.
