Tags: ChatGPT has emerged as a promising tool for enhancing clinical practice. However, its implementation raises critical questions about its impact on this field. In this scoping review, we explored the utility of ChatGPT in pharmacy practice. A search was conducted in five databases up to 23 May 2024. Studies analyzing the use of ChatGPT with direct or potential applications in pharmacy practice were included. A total of 839 records were identified, of which 14 studies were included: six tested ChatGPT version 3.5, three tested version 4.0, three tested both versions, one used version 3.0, and one did not specify the version. Only half of the studies evaluated ChatGPT in real-world scenarios. A reasonable number of papers analyzed the use of ChatGPT in pharmacy practice, highlighting both benefits and limitations. The studies indicated that ChatGPT is not fully prepared for use in pharmacy practice due to significant limitations. However, there is great potential for its application in this context in the near future, following further improvements to the tool. Further exploration of its use in pharmacy practice is required, along with proposing its conscious and appropriate utilization., artificial intelligence; ChatGPT; pharmacy; pharmacy practice; pharmaceutical services
