Pharmacists have a unique opportunity to enhance access to and quality of health care for a large population of incarcerated persons with unmet health needs.\nObjectives: To summarize the relevant literature and to propose future directions for the role of clinical pharmacists in the correctional health care setting.\nData Sources, Study Selection, and Data Extraction: A literature search was conducted using MEDLINE, and 38 articles were selected and reviewed. Additional resources were found through screening of reference lists and online searches using the Google search engine. The literature was categorized thematically by medical condition or clinical practice area, and the results are formatted as a narrative review.\nData Synthesis: The presence of pharmacists within correctional health care facilities improves the quality of health of incarcerated individuals and increases the efficiency of health care services provided. The studies supporting this concept, as reviewed here, focused largely on specific programs, such as pharmacist-led diabetes clinics, anticoagulation clinics, and substance use disorder collaborations. Although the day-to-day activities performed by clinical pharmacists in prisons are not well documented, the information presented here should serve as a catalyst for expanding clinical pharmacy services across correctional health care settings.\nConclusions: The literature supports expanding the role of pharmacists in correctional facilities to include direct patient care, medication management, and disease-specific clinics. Those pioneering practice in this area have an opportunity to add to the small body of evidence by bringing their practice successes into the literature.\nKeywords: clinical pharmacy services, pharmacist, correctional facilities, prison, incarceration\nR\u00c9SUM\u00c9\nContexte : Le r\u00f4le du pharmacien clinicien en milieu correctionnel n\u2019est pas bien d\u00e9crit dans la litt\u00e9rature.
