ChatGPT in pharmacy practice: a cross-sectional exploration of Jordanian pharmacists’ perception, practice, and concerns	Jordan	Identified benefits and challenges of ChatGPT in pharmacy practice	2 months	[21]
Effectiveness of ChatGPT in clinical pharmacy and the role of artificial intelligence in medication therapy management	USA	ChatGPT 4.0 accurately solved 39 out of 39 (100%) patient cases in medication therapy management (MTM). It successfully identified drug interactions, provided therapy recommendations, and formulated general management plans, but did not recommend specific dosages. The study suggests that ChatGPT can assist pharmacists in formulating MTM plans to improve overall efficiency and enhance patient safety. The future of the pharmacy profession may depend on integrating AI models like ChatGPT to improve patient care.	N/A	[30]
