METHODS:The implementation of licensed pharmacist system in China was introduced;based on the experience of licensed assistant physician system in China and pharmacy technician qualification system in USA,the necessi-ty and feasibility of setting up licensed assistant pharmacist were interpreted. RESULTS&CONCLUSIONS:At present,it is neces-sary to draw lessons from licensed assistant physician system in China and pharmacy technician qualification system in USA and set up licensed assistant pharmacist because of the shortage of licensed pharmacist,low threshold of qualification admittance,non-stan-dard licensed qualification of primary(assistant)pharmacy technician,absence of Licensed Pharmacist Law. It is recommended to promote the legislation of Licensed Pharmacist Law through clearing the definition and responsibility of licensed assistant pharma-cist,confirming examination scope and the threshold of qualification admittance,etc.
