Resumo
Antimicrobials are one of the best discoveries of the 20th century, which concomitant with their use came one of the
biggest current problems in the world, bacterial resistance. Within this context, the present study aims to highlight the
role of the pharmacist in the face of bacterial resistance and rational use of antimicrobials in the hospital environment.
For the development of the study, a literature review was carried out for a reflective analysis based on studies
published from 2010 to 2022 in the main databases found in Portuguese, English and Spanish. We selected 20 articles
out of 6,650 found before applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria and performing the analysis. The clinical
pharmacist plays a key role in combating bacterial resistance. In addition, the hospital environment is a place where
there are more people in the same environment administering various antibiotics and different spectrums. The
pharmaceutical professional has a direct and indirect impact on patients and medicines, being responsible for
promoting the rational use of antibiotics, with standardization of medicines and possible interventions in the
treatment, providing care, insurance, and health to the patient. Therefore, it is an important key in combating bacterial
resistance, which is a public health issue, in addition to the possibility of promoting research and innovation in the
field of microbiology and antimicrobial therapy
