%X <B>OBJECTIVE: </B>This study had two main aims: (i) document the experience of community pharmacists receiving a spontaneous request for ibuprofen and oral pseudoephedrine, and their use of pharmaceutical records, and (ii) explore patients' perceptions of pharmaceutical records and pharmaceutical interventions.<BR><B>METHODS: </B>The study was conducted over two weeks between February and April 2014 in 482 community pharmacies and 8 French faculties of pharmacy. It was based on data collected by pharmacy team focus groups during patient telephone interviews using standardized question grids. Textual and thematic analyses were made of the patient responses.<BR><B>RESULTS: </B>Four pharmacy team focus groups carried out 49 telephone interviews. Examination of the practice of the groups showed that pharmaceutical interventions, although incompletely registered, are performed on a daily basis and enhance the value of the pharmacist's function. Analysis of the telephone interviews also showed the importance of the advisory role of the pharmacist in dispensing an optional medical prescription. The thematic analysis of the results identified a positive response of patients to pharmaceutical interventions if made by their regular pharmacist and accompanied by explanatory information. The focus groups and patients agreed that pharmaceutical records were not consulted often enough.<BR><B>CONCLUSIONS: </B>This study underlines the need for greater safety in the use of optional medical prescription drugs. Promoting responsible self-medication in compliance with proper use should include systematic reference to a PR and informed dialogue with the patient.
