METHODS Under the leadership of Tianhe District Health Bureau of Guangzhou ，relying on the regional pharmaceutical specialty alliance ，general pharmacist system of medical consortium was established ，and the general pharmacist was responsible for the overall planning of pharmaceutical care in the medical consortium. The joint management office of pharmaceutical care was established ，and the training of the pharmacists in the medical consortium was organized. A regional audit center was established to realize the prescription review of 13 community health service centers in the medical consortium. “Internet plus ”home pharmaceutical care was carried out ，and science popularization education was provided for communities ，schools，enterprises and institutions. RESULTS After systematic training and assessment ，three pharmacist teams had been successfully established in the medical consortium to provide prescription review ，science popularization and education and family pharmacist services for community residents ；the regional audit center successfully intercepted 17.17％ of unreasonable prescriptions ，reducing the amount of unreasonable drug use by a total of 6.56 million yuan. After the intervention of prescription review system ，the qualified rate of outpatient prescriptions in community health service centers was ≥95％，and the qualified rate increased by an average of 6％. The department of pharmaceutical science popularization and education held 35 science popularization and free clinic activities ，of which 71.20％ of the residents believed that the activities had improved their understanding of drugs.
